Mr. Monk and The Blue Flu

OBSESSIVE. COMPULSIVE. DETECTIVE.

Welcome to the series of all-new original mysteries starring Adrian Monk, the brilliant investigator who always knows when something's out of place....

Monk is horrified when he learns there's going to be a blue flu in San Francisco. He doesn't understand what the blue flu is--but it sounds terrible. Captain Stottlemeyer explains that it's not really a virus. The police force plan to call in "sick" until they get a better contract. The good news is that the labor dispute will give Monk a chance to get back on the force. The bad news is, it means he'll be a "scab"--and he doesn't like the sound of that, either....

Before he knows it, Monk has his badge back--and his own squad to command. Unfortunately, some of the squad members make Monk look like a paragon of mental health. But despite the challenges, they'll have to pull together to catch an astrologer's killer, solve a series of mysterious fatal assaults, and, most important. clean up their desks.
