Is the Insanity Plea a Real Excuse for A Crime?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a great page-turner and mystery. It is intelligent and literary, while at the same time containing a lot of sex and violence. The mystery deals with the insanity plea and whehter it is a real excuse for a crime.
A mystery Book for Serious Readers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I always enjoy Greenleaf's books. They are page-turners for serious readers on vacation who want to have fun and not feel guilty or wasteful. This book takes place in Berkeley and pits the Private Eye extraordinaire, Tanner, against some seedy attorneys, crazy hippies, and a varied cast of characters as he tries to track down a scissors murderer. Sounds good? It is!
