In the prologue, a doctor is performing spinal surgery on a patient. He makes a nick in a cervical vertebra. The nurse points it out to him, but he is not concerned.
Cookie is a young exotic dancer. She has back and neck pain and is in a brace to stabilize her neck. Major, her live in lover is an older man. He must do spinal taps on Cookie weekly to manage her pain. Tug Wyler is an attorney who takes Cookie’s case. Unrelated to this case, he begins getting calls from Robert Killroy, a mentally challenged young man. Robert is a bill collector and is trying to collect $14 for dry cleaning services. As Tug listens to Robert’s story about being hit by a truck he realizes there is a legal case for Robert. After visiting Cookie in her apartment, Tug develops a bad cold, and it quickly escalates to something worse.
The story is fast paced, the characters are developed, and it is written in the first-person point of view. I love quirky characters and Robert is one for the books. Tug is flawed and is being pulled in so many directions. If you enjoy mysteries with some medical issues, you will like this book.
