Till the Butchers Cut Him Down by Marcia Muller
Reader Reviews 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Sharon opens her own agency, August 17, 2002 Reviewer: Karen Potts from Lake Jackson, TX USA Private Investigator Sharon McCone has grown and matured through the first fifteen books which comprise the series which bears her name. In this offering, Sharon starts her own agency, although she rents space from her former employer, All Souls' Legal Cooperative, and thus stays in touch with her old friends. Her first case involves an old college chum whom she calls Suits. Although he was an unpromising youth, Suits has become a man of some wealth and influence. He specializes in taking over companies and turning them around so that they become profitable entities again. In the process of doing so, Suits usually cuts unprofitable people and activities, thus earning him numerous enemies. When someone starts to harass him in dangerous ways, Suits decides it's time to bring in an investigator to find out who's responsible. Sharon travels the country, talking to people in companies which Suits has turned around. There are more than enough suspects, and Sharon has to do some extensive sleuthing to see who is threatening Suits and his wife. She takes on her nephew as a temporary assistant and continues her unconventional relationship with Hy Ripinski. Muller's fans will not be disappointed in this entry in the series.
