Absolute Rage TANENBAUM, ROBERT K.
Atria Books, 2002 0743403444 / 9780743403443
Good , 8vo - 7¾" - 9¾" Tall The Karps kick the rubes, but don't emerge unscathed in the 14th installment of the successful Karp/Ciampi series. As in previous novels, the ball gets rolling with the meddling of the brainy and unstable Marlene Ciampi, who against her better judgment ("Don't get involved, tattoo it on your forehead, Ciampi!") falls for a New York neighbor's sob story about a long-simmering family feud in a West Virginia coal town. The sudden savage murders back in West Virginia of the neighbor and her daughter and her labor-agitator husband bring both Marlene and her husband, Butch Karp, down to the boonies in their legal capacity. Their teenage daughter, nun-in-training Lucy, falls hard for the neighbor's son, and the 10-year-old twins, Zik and Zak, now growing into distinct personalities, come along for the ride. As in other novels in the series, Marlene's antics bring danger to her family's doorstep and beyond this time resulting in a real Karp family tragedy. When disaster strikes, the ever volatile Marlene goes over the edge and calls in her trusty Vietnamese thug, Tran, and his gang of gold-hungry goons, with grisly results. While the novel displays Tanenbaum's trademark humor and adept plotting, the series has definitely taken an ominous twist with this book. Marlene (never a model of sanity) is, per usual, talking to her dogs, but now they're talking back to her. The author (who seems to greatly enjoy his book-length ruminations on the dynamics of long-lived marriage) has pulled off a coup: fans of the series will breathlessly await his next book, just to see if the Karp family can actually stand itself any more.

6.54 AUD

Falsely Accused TANENBAUM, ROBERT
United Kingdom Pan Macmillan 1997 0330351400 / 9780330351409
Good , 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall His latest hard-hitting and utterly compelling thriller featuring husband-wife lawyers Butch Karp and Marlene Ciampi. He is now in private practice and she has started a detective agency specialising in helping abused women. Butch's first case is to represent the New York Chief Medical Examiner who has just been fired for supposed incompetence. As Karp methodically demolishes his opponents' case in court, he begins to suspect a massive cover-up ...and the clues lie in Mariene's contact with a horribly battered girl, and with a string of mysterious deaths of men held in police custody. Together they find themselves battling the District Attorney's office -- and the all-out ruthlessness of those who would use the public trust for their own dark and corrupt purposes.
