There are quite a few to go. The reviews in Amazon said that this one wasn't one of his best, but a good way to get to know the characters...they get better..

Book 18 of 2012; didn't count Dead Floating Lovers

Hard to concentrate on reading - strong wind blowing - so far, so good here - Poor Indiana
