Collateral Damage by Frederick Lee Brooke was a fun book to read. My favorite genre of book to read is mystery/suspense books and this one is one of those. I was worried when I started the book that I might not know what is going on because it is the 3rd book in the “Annie Ogden Mystery” series but I was glad once I started reading that I really didn’t need to have read the other books in order to understand what is going on in this book. There were some parts where it might have been nice to know who the characters were and some of the history with them but all in all it is easy enough to follow along if you haven’t read the first 2 books. I loved the characters in this book and I can’t wait to read the first 2 books and than read any of the books that come out after this one.

About the book: When Annie Ogden’s ex-boyfriend Michael Garcia reappears, she has to confront a lie dating back to her time in Iraq. Will she go back to hot, passionate Michael, who has developed a disturbing interest in meth, or stick with her pudgy PI partner and fiancé, Salvatore? The calculus changes when Michael is arrested for murder. When Salvatore refuses to help investigate, Annie is forced to try to find the killer herself. Meanwhile her sister’s creepy husband, Todd, is making more of an ass of himself than usual. Annie’s problems with three obsessive men suddenly pale in significance when she realizes the killer has set his sights on her. Having changed his mind about helping her, Salvatore finds himself in a desperate race against time, the only man capable of finding the killer before it’s too late.

Great review, Margaret. I read the second in Annie’s series, Zombie Candy, and just couldn’t stop laughing! I’m so glad you loved Collateral Damage , and I can’t wait to read it for myself.

I’m also a stop on this tour.
I thought the exact same thing! I was a bit worried about it being the third in the series… but it wasn’t a problem at all. It DID make me more interested in reading the first two books though because I’m curious about even more background info on the main characters.
Liked your review!
Take care!
