Internationally bestselling husband and wife Jonathan and Faye Kellerman team up for a powerful one-two punch with CAPITAL CRIMES, a gripping pair of original crime thrillers.
MY SISTER’S KEEPER: BERKELEY
Some of progressive state representative Davida Grayson’s views have made her unpopular. Although her foes are numerous no one suspects that any buttons Davida might push could evoke deadly force. But now Davida lies brutally murdered in her office, and Berkeley homicide detectives Will Barnes and Amanda Isis must unravel Davida’s complex, before the killer pulls off a repeat performance.
MUSIC CITY BREAKDOWN: NASHVILLE
Baker Southerby was a child prodigy performer. But something leads him to become a Nashville cop. His partner, Lamar Van Gundy, is a would-be studio bassist who earned himself a detective’s badge. As part of Nashville PD’s elite Murder Squad, they catch a homicide that’s high-profile even for a city where musical celebrity is routine.
CAPITAL CRIMES is page-turning, psychologically resonant suspense–just what we’ve come to expect from two of the world’s most successful crime writers.

      Bestselling suspense authors Jonathan and Faye Kellerman team up for a pair of mysteries whose theme is capital cities. MY SISTER'S KEEPER moves between Berkeley and Sacramento, California, and involves the murder of a progressive state representative. The story focuses primarily on female figures, so Carrington MacDuffie does the reading. The other story, MUSIC CITY BREAKDOWN, takes place in Nashville, Tennessee. The plot involving music and murder is more male-oriented, and Stephen Hoye reads. Both narrators distinguish characters well with slight changes of tone or accent, and without artifice. Their pacing makes for easy listening. It would have been helpful had the publisher labeled which stories are on which discs. The stories break between discs, however. R.C.G.

      The second collaboration by bestsellers Jonathan and Faye Kellerman (after Double Homicide
      ) offers two thin novellas that dedicated fans will most appreciate. In the first, My Sister's Keeper
      , Faye Kellerman's LAPD detective Peter Decker makes an extended cameo role in an inquiry into the murder of an activist lesbian California state representative, Davida Grayson. Grayson, who was the focus of threats from politicians and members of the radical right opposed to her support for stem-cell research, is found shot to death in her Berkeley office; an uninspired pair of local police find that the dead woman's personal relationships, rather than her politics, may have motivated the killer. The second story, Music City Breakdown
      , gives Jonathan Kellerman's consulting psychologist, Alex Delaware, a little more to do after Nashville detectives probing the stabbing murder of recording artist Jack Jeffries learn that Delaware had been treating the dead man. The solution is as unsurprising as that of My Sister's Keeper
      .

      This second collaboration by the Kellermans, who usually write novels separately, contains two novellas. In MY SISTER'S KEEPER, Davida Grayson, a state representative who is a lesbian, a progressive, and a supporter of stem-cell research, is murdered by one of her numerous enemies. Detectives Will Barnes and Amanda Isis must uncover the killer. Faye Kellerman's series hero, Detective Decker of the LAPD, makes a cameo appearance. MUSIC CITY BREAKDOWN involves the murder of folk guitarist Jack Jeffries, who happens to be the patient of Jonathan Kellerman's series regular, Alex Delaware. In both works John Rubinstein provides a credible narration that showcases his deep voice and penchant for clear detail. The novellas are enhanced by Rubinstein's familiar voice and precise intonation. M.B.K. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
