I checked Fantastic Fiction site a minute ago and she has a couple of 2 or 3 book series which I might plump for, but nothing standalone unless you count another Bill collaboration.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-49411817524877634742013-08-22T22:47:44.486-07:002013-08-22T22:47:44.486-07:00I read the first in Marcia Muller's Sharon McC...I read the first in Marcia Muller's Sharon McCone series and I thought it was OK. But I have a couple more to try. I always feel like I need to give an author more than one chance. Unfortunately the series has 29 books so far.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-27029200387351559942013-08-22T22:40:13.233-07:002013-08-22T22:40:13.233-07:00Tracy, Double which is no.13 (next year sometime) ...Tracy, Double which is no.13 (next year sometime) is the book written with his wife. I probably ought to try something by her, but there is nothing on my shelves. I think she has a decent reputation as an author, but then I've only recently come to trying out Pronzini, so she can maybe wait a while.<br />col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-46460963510204091112013-08-22T19:39:33.540-07:002013-08-22T19:39:33.540-07:00I haven't read this one, or any by Colin Wilco...I haven't read this one, or any by Colin Wilcox. My husband did read Twospot, and I asked if he liked it, but it is so long ago he doesn't remember. Still has it, though, of course, so I may go back and pick it up some time. Somewhere in the series, there is also a collaboration between Pronzini and his wife, Marcia Muller.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-1328683248377305502013-08-19T12:39:29.289-07:002013-08-19T12:39:29.289-07:00Moira, I reckon you might like it, late-70's S...Moira, I reckon you might like it, late-70's San Francisco - I'll forward you it,col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-14598848898192241422013-08-19T11:18:02.851-07:002013-08-19T11:18:02.851-07:00Wow, that's really unusual - I've come acr...Wow, that's really unusual - I've come across collaborations, but not really mash-ups of two detectives. Almost tempted to read it - though presumably it's of most interest to those who follow the two different series.
