The Lomax and Biggs Mysteries

Bloodthirsty

Book 2

Barry Gerber, one of the most hated men in Hollywood, is a no-show for a red carpet event. The next morning he turns up dead, killed in such a bizarre way that neither Detective Mike Lomax nor Terry Biggs nor anyone in Forensics has ever seen anything like it before. Two days later, the prime suspect—another despised Show Business Bad Boy—is found murdered in the same sadistic manner.

The list of suspects is as long as the credits in a summer blockbuster. Everyone hated the murdered men. Terry Biggs jokes that this could be an elaborate public service effort to make Hollywood a better place to live and work. But he and Lomax soon find that all jokes are off as they wade through a daunting number of leads to uncover who will be the next victim. What they stumble upon is a motive far more primal than they had ever imagined.

Just the right amount of belly laughs and suspense… Karp’s second offering is every bit as funny and fast-paced as The Rabbit Factory.
Booklist, starred review
Karp needs a blurb from me like Uma needs a facelift. This guy is the real deal, and Bloodthirsty is a first class, fast, funny and fabulous read by a terrific writer. Great entertainment.
John Lescroart, NYT bestselling author
Laugh-out-loud funny, realistically portrayed, breakneck-paced, and powered by literally hundreds of hilarious one-liners… Karp has hit the jackpot with Lomax and Biggs.
