Right up until they put him in jail, McKenzie thought the cops were kidding. After all, he did them a favor by stopping.

Right up until they put him in jail, McKenzie thought the cops were kidding. After all, he did them a favor by stopping a rookie cop from roughing up a distraught woman at a murder scene. But the next thing Mac knows he’s in jail, missing an important date with his girlfriend and reliving nightmares he thought he’d finally left behind – and he’s vowing payback for all of it. If that means sticking his nose into a crime investigation, well, he’s done it before. Only, what appears to be a straightforward case of a cheating boyfriend, his alcoholic girlfriend and an opportune baseball bat proves far more complicated than the police are willing to accept. More disconcerting, as he investigates, Mac finds himself again fighting the influence of a shadowy figure who controls more of what goes on in the Twin Cities than a rational voter would believe. And then there are the unidentified thugs who kill a witness and rough up him and his female lawyer-ally. Soon Mac realizes that the truth of this sordid crime may be as hard to find – and as hard to live with – as the justice he seeks.

Love this series. MacKenzie is such a interesting character. A former policemen who becomes rich and then does favors for his friends that get him into more trouble and danger than if he was still a policemen. Sounds corny and at first I wasn't going to start the series but after reading the first book "Tin City" I just couldn't help myself. I had to continue on for the remaining 12 books. MacKenzie is funny, romantic and smart and his inner voice just makes you laugh. Sometimes I can't help just laughing out loud. But Housewright is a clever writer and the what appears a simple favor gets very complicated as the story moves along. I love all the books and recommend you start from the beginning if you can.

First Sentence: The dream came back to haunt me the night they threw me in jail.

Former policeman Rushmore McKenzie is retired, wealthy and does favors for people. Merodie Davies has problems with alcohol and men, particularly the one who has been dead for several days upstairs. When she finds him and runs screaming into the street, the policeman on the scene is roughing her up rather than questioning her. McKenzie steps into the scene and is thrown in jail for his efforts. Convinced by Merodie's attorney to help her, McKenzie finds things are not as simple as they appear and that the case resurrects old nightmares.

Books by Housewright are always a pleasure but this one; not quite as much as some of the others. McKenzie is a great character and it's nice to see him overcome his past and grow to the next level in his romantic life. However, unless you've read the previous books, other recurring characters, and certainly the new characters, were very one dimensional. The plot kept the story moving forward and provided some exciting moments, but was imminently forgettable. It really was McKenzie's story, and that's not all bad but I'll hope the next book is a bit more well rounded.

Housewright's McKenzie series gets better with every new book and Dead Boyfriends is no exception to the rule.

We expect the strong mix of local color from author's who aren't in LA, or New York. That said, Housewright paints the Twin Cities with more than normal care and attention. His plotting is brisk as usual. However, this time it is more complex. His characters are well drawn and engaging. When he draws out people of little hope, he does it with a minimum of brush strokes, but the image remains compelling all the same.

There is more emphasis on the protagonist's love life here than normal, and that's fine too. In lesser hands, this would have been hackneyed. Instead, he makes us care.

This is definitely worth picking up if a) you have liked any other book in the series; b) are a Midwesterner who likes a good yarn; or c) someone who wants a very good read on a rainy day.

This is the 5th "Mac" booking have read. (Not in order) While there are 3 or 4 characters that show up in all the books, Housewright brings in new and interesting additional people in each of his books. I have 2 more of his books downloaded and look forward to reading them.

Read this so long ago can't remember what it was about but I know I really enjoyed it at the time.
Went to a doing at the Columbia Heights, MN library when he was there talking about his books.
It is always fun to read stories that take place near where you live or have been.
