John Ceepak Mystery

review 1: While I love John Ceepak and the whole sunderfull, funderfull crew, this was not my favorite book in the series. It's as well plotted and written as the rest of the series but the reality show theme kind of turned me off. Give me dysfunctional family violence or a good con scam over steriod muscled fools and competitive drinking any day of the week. That said, I'd follow Ceepak into an abandoned carnival ride anytime.
review 2: The return, after a short hiatus, of John Ceepak and Danny Boyle, the odd couple cops in Sea Haven, NJ,, combines satire and murder mystery. Ceepak, of course, is the straight arrow, do-it-by-the book character, while Boyle serves as his junior partner, asking questions and narrating the tale. And what a story it is.It seems a TV pro... moreduction company chooses that fictional seaside town to house its reality show, “Fun House,” in which six contestants vie for a quarter of million dollar prize. Unfortunately, the game encourages rowdie-ism, sex, and lots of beer drinking along the way. When things get out of hand, Ceepak and Boyle are assigned to head up a security detail to control things. But events turn from bad to worse when a cast member is murdered and they have to look for the murderer.Latest in the series, this novel exhibits all the excellent characteristics of its predecessors: an unusual plot and lots of wise-cracking humor. These are always fun reads, and this one as well is recommended. less
