    <body><![CDATA[I really love the Elvis Cole series by Robert Crais. It's an LA based PI series. I grab them as eagerly as I do a James Lee Burke, or a Michael Connelly. I think his character development is some of the best out there. <br/><br/>A word of warning, though. Robert Crais writes other books that aren'...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/43035874">more...</a>]]></body>
