Rating:  - Love This Book
I stumbled upon my first Elvis Cole story earlier this year and ever since I have read five more. The Last Detective is fast moving and thrilling and I highly recommend it.
Rating: - Five Stars from a first time Crais reader!!!
This was my first Robert Crais book...he was recommended to me by my BFF who is an avid reader of his.
I live in L.A., so maybe that's why I connected with it so easily... but this was also just one of those books I could NOT bear to put down. His character Elvis had me so intrigued as to what lengths he would go to rescue that kidnapped boy, I just had to keep going with it!
It will be fun now too, to go back and see what I missed in Elvis' earlier adventures. Thanks ... Read More
Rating: - Another Well Done Elvis Cole Novel
THE LAST DETECTIVE is the ninth book in Robert Crais's "Elvis Cole" series dealing with the adventures of a private detective working in Los Angeles. While not nearly as great as LA REQUIEM, the prior installment, this is still a very well done thriller.

Ben Chenier has been kidnapped while in Elvis' care and it seems to be connected to Elvis' past, but nothing is ever as it appears.
Joe Pike is back, too, recovered from his wounds from his previous adventure and trying to get back in the groove of investigations.
Tension builds quickly and stays taut all ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent Story and Added Depth for Elvis
Robert Crais has created a very interesting series with the tough and quiet Joe Pike and the outrageous and outspoken Elvis Cole. The Series has come to a crossroads with this novel and Crais has masterfully maneuvered himself into a terrific situation. The always cracking wise and smart mouth of Elvis Cole is gagged for this book and the serious side of Cole and the caring side of Pike are moved to the forefront. When Ben, Lucy's son is kidnapped and Richard (Lucy's ex) comes into town to put the blame directly ... Read More
