Thanks, Karin. I've always liked Perry, too, and, having
worked for an insurance company for 13 years, I love
nitpicking through insurance-related books (CA Fire &
Life, excellent depiction; Paretsky direly needs a fact
checker).
I have this book and will move it
from a random place in the TBR stacks to the top of the
heap.

> I've always liked Thomas Perry and was pleased to
find a "new" title,
Death Benefits (2001). It's kind of an update on The
Wreckers, with a hint of Harvest Home. The "detectives" are a
consultant hired by an insurance company to find the agent
suspected of being behind a major fraud, her sort-of
ex-boyfriend (an accountant) conscripted to help, and an
expert in illegal computer searches. I don't believe they are
series characters, but I can see the potential.
