"Somebody has one of the worst hairstyles Britt-Marie has ever laid eyes on, as if she's combed her hair with a terrified animal."

First line: "She would never have fit as neatly into the trunk of his own car." -- Not sure I'll ever be game for a home exchange after this book!

Outstanding. Layered, humorous, smart, suspenseful and full of colorful characters. Hallinan's writing is sharp! There's no maybe about it, this book rules.

First sentence: "Bad luck, as my mentor and surrogate father, Herbie Mott, used to say, arrives on the wind."
