A book cover with the title of an episode.

Indigo Slam, Robert Crais, 1997

A palate-cleansing dose of Elvis Cole and Joe Pike in Los Angeles/Long Beach defending the weak (counterfeiter Clark Hewitt and his kids (Teri, Charlie, Winona) from the Russian mob, a crooked US Marshal, and a group of Vietnamese revolutionaries. Tight writing, fast action, but a plot that is totally unbelievable. Fun!
