Read in December, 2007
The author, after a stroke, found himself able to write but unable to read. His detective, after a blow on the head, finds himself in a similar predicament. What's amazing is that this author wrote this book. What's less engaging and interesting is a detective solving a case from a hospital bed.

This is the book Engel wrote after recovering from a stroke that left him word blind and unable to read. I just finished his memoir The Man Who Forgot How To Read and this seemed like a natural next step.
