"Sunset Express" by Robert Crais is another Elvis Cole novel. Cole and Lucy Chenier, a lawyer he met while working on a case in Louisiana, have continued their long distance romance but now she's coming to Los Angeles on business and bringing her son along. The plan -- to stay with Cole during the visit but the plans are slightly complicated by the fact that Cole has taken on a high profile case. Jonathan Green, a hotshot -- and good -- lawyer has asked Cole to do some investigating in a murder case. Green is convinced his client is not guilty of murdering his wife and needs Cole's help to prove it. Green is also convinced a female cop, Angela Rossi, planted the evidence that is supposed to convict his client and asks Cole to start the investigation there. However, Cole's partner, Joe Pike, has a history with Rossi and he doesn't believe she's guilty of anything other than being a really good cop.
So who really are the good guys and the bad guys? The investigation and Cole's new romance are full of twists and turns that make excellent reading!
My personal quest to find the next book in the Elvis Cole series, "Indigo Slam," had its own twists and turns. The two local libraries only have it available in audio form -- no hardback, paperback, or kindle versions. Amazon.com did have paperback copies -- new and used -- so the order was made and a copy is on its way to my home. pazt
