Acclaimed television writer Marshall Karp has been lauded for his Mike Lomax and Terry Biggs mysteries, including The Rabbit Factory. These two contentious friends investigate Hollywood homicides that no one else will touch. In their second teaming, Lomax and Biggs are on the trail of a killer who knocked off one of the most despised men in the movie industry. There’s only one problem - the lead suspect just got plugged as well.

ANOTHER REALLY GOOD LOMAX AND BIGGS STORY!

Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2018

Verified Purchase

Another well written Lomax and Biggs story by Marshall Karp. I love this series. The two are trying to find the killers of a production company employees and why they drain their blood. In the true fashion of this series, there are twists and turns, along with a bit of well placed humor. I'm really liking Lomax and Diana. I always lose track of time reading this series, it's just that good and so interesting. Can't wait for the next book to come out.

Hooked On These Books

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2017

I started reading fictional character series books with William Connelly's Harry Bosch series. Having read the entire series to date, I thought that no other author could top it. I was incorrect. That series now plays second fiddle to the Marshall Karp "Lomax & Biggs" series. Two attributes put it on top: the lasting partnership of two detectives (as opposed to partnership changes throughout) AND above all else is the great humor between the detectives Lomax & Biggs. My one regret is that the series is not nearly as long (# of books written) as Connelly's Bosch series.

If you like Robert B. Parker, give Marshall Karp a try.

Karp has a voice similar to Robert B. Parker’s, only a bit more sardonic and acerbic.

After reading a more serious book by Michael Connelly, this lighter story was like a sorbet – something to ‘refresh’ my reading palate.

But make no mistake. This is not a ‘fluff’ novel. Karp writes a complex and attention-holding tale about murders among the Hollywood elite.

Karp’s writing is smooth flowing and the banter between Lomax and Briggs rings true.

His next book is on my ‘To Read’ list.

So interesting and so funny

Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2016

This is the second instalment of the series and Boy, did I lap it up! It can be read on its own because there is quite a bit of retelling of the first book, as so much of this book is related to the previous one, but you will miss out on the relationship between characters. A really interesting plot solved with traditional detective work, and plenty of laughs.This book loses the sad undertone in Lomax's life. It is really a rare combination in that the plot is not undermined by the laughs, or the other way around. Ideal for a weekend on the couch (you won't be able to read it in more than two days) after a hard week's work.

BIGGS AND LOMAX

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2014

After rereading NYPD Red to prepare for NYPD Red 2 I wondered who is this Marshall Karp that collaborates with James Patterson on such great mysteries. Very simple. Amazon Kindle Fire store opened up a new (to me) mystery writer who introduced two lovable, funny and believable characters that bring along with them people that you would really like to know. I have since read three Lomax and Biggs series mysteries. Story lines are great! I'm actually sad after I race through the book and turn the last page. If you enjoy characters and the journey of reading a book you will not be disappointed. Gee I might actually go see these guys on a movie screen.

Very Good

As many have said, Karp is an excellent writer. He is particularly good with dialogue, like the late Robert B. Parker. The only reason re the lack of a final star is that the plot is a bit over-the-top, which is common with mystery/thriller writers. Still, extremely entertaining.

FUNNY AND SHARP

Very very good book two in the LOMAX and BIGGS series. No book two let down here. Marshall Karp's second book in the police detective series is BLOOD THIRTSY and a a good edition in this very funny series. Like snappy dialogue. This is it. Plus a nice mystery. Our duo must stop mayhem in the film industry from pretty nasty bad guys. Good series and Good book. RECOMMENDED

I really adored this book. I bought it after reading another Lomax and Biggs novel about a Rabbit lol. This guy is so witty and stylized and on it, I often chuckled snd occasionally laughed out loud. It is a real mystery, but not so graphic I cringed, and always full of well-drawn characters doing unexpected things to solve unusual criminal cases. I will now read everything he writes.

Morcombe and Wise of detectives!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 8, 2014

I'm a new fan of Lomax and Biggs. They are the comedy duo of the detective world. Many authors have tried in vain to create the buddy detective pairing but few succeed.....Karp is one of the successful ones.
The banter between Lomax and Biggs is one of the stars of the novel yet remains serious at times. A little too Hollywood at times but hey....it's set in Hollywood!
Will be keeping an eye out for the next one when Amazon pulls their finger out and releases the ebooks of the already releases printed versions.
Treat yourself and have a chuckle along with Lomax and Biggs
