About book Down Here (2005)

That's the way it is down here. If you can't be counted on, you can't be counted in.Former prosecutor Eva Wolfe is the ONLY woman who seems capable of resisting Burke's rather dubious charms. So, of course, SHE is the not-so-secret love of his life. It just seems to work out that way.Now, Burke's heart-throb stands accused of the attempted murder of a brutal serial rapist. Time for Burke to come to her rescue and track down the real attempted killer, or lousy shot, as "attempted" killers are known in some circles. Burke revisits the rape investigations, and gets to display his compassionate side as he interviews countless rape victims, passing out the Kleenex, cooing sympathetically, and even going so far as to fix one woman up with a brand new puppy. Awww!If the Burke books were a sitcom, this one would be something of a clip show -- Remember when Burke and Wolfe caught that child molester? Remember when Burke and the Prof were in the slammer? Maybe this went on in the other books, but I don't remember NOTICING it SO much. I can't exactly say what's wrong with this one, but it seems very lifeless. Perhaps it's the lack of action, or maybe because we don't actually meet The Villain until the end of the book. I don't know. I'd have to say my favorite parts were Michelle playing Barbies (or would it be Kens?) as she dresses Burke for his "dates" with the rapist's sister. (And, yes, now that I see that sentence in print, I DO realize how bizarre it sounds...)There are only three books left in the series. At this point in the game, I'm willing to bet it's unlikely that Burke and Wolfe will be eloping to a palace in the suburbs, happily raising up a whole passel of Neapolitan Mastiffs.
