About This Book

LAST DANCE IN REDONDO BEACH is the second in the acclaimed Andy Sussman/Murray Glick comic mystery trilogy from Michael J. Katz.

"What a lot of raffish, rowdy, reprehensible people Michael Katz has assembled on Redondo Beach. I loved hanging out with them, and I was sorry when the party was over."
Donald Westlake

THE STORY: Sportscaster Andy Sussman is plunged into the raucous and sometimes hilarious word of pro wrestling when Dr. Double XX drowns during the Network Celebrity Superstars race. Andy's buddy, detective Murray Glick, joins him straight from one of his Mystery Cruises to help solve the case.

"[Andy Sussman's] dogged pursuit of the facts is consistently beguiling. Katz' character is as relentless in the pursuit of the story as Gregory McDonald's Irwin Fletcher, and he could just as easily be played by Chevy Chase."
New York Newsday

"Katz makes the men behind the gaudy facades believable figures rather than comic grotesques...the unmasking of both victim and killer is cleverly and comically plotted."
Los Angeles Times

"The second adventure of Andy Sussman, an out-of-shape, un-suave personality, should delight his fans...Funny, poignant, and definitely human."
Sara Paretsky

"Michael Katz is one of the wittier crime writers to come along in some time. I enjoyed Last Dance In Redondo Beach every wry step of the way. Don't miss it!"
Roger L. Simon
