Well I order a copy of Over The Edge in Spanish and it was delivered to me in English. It was for someone who doesn't speak English so it was useless to me. They told me it was due to a classification error from Amazon amg credited my full purchase and shipping and told me to keep the book. So buy comfortably and knowing that if something went wrong with your order thy would take good care of you. :)

This is a good mystery page-turner, perfect for vacation or airplane. The characters
are interesting and the book features the same protagonists - Pete and Rina Decker.
Both are orthodox jews and the book provides a lot of interesting material on judaism.
The ending is a tad weak but it is well worth the read.

Alex Delaware returns in another Jonathan Kellerman detective novel. At this point in the series, the books are essentially police procedurals. Earlier books in the series had Alex working, and sometimes receiving help from Milo Sturgis, a police detective who works on the West Side in LA. Now, Milo is the detective, of course, and every time he has a case that is a "mystery" he invites Alex along. As an aside, in a future book Alex tells you the chief of police tried to hire him full-time to run the department's psych unit, so perhaps that explains the access Alex has when he tails along after Milo.

In the current book, Milo has been handed an absolute disaster: someone's discovered a group of dead bodies in a marsh to the west of the city, land that's been hopefully slated for development, and also for preservation as a wilderness preserve. A militant environmentalist watches over the site, along with a kid doing community service, and the kid is tipped that there are bodies in the marsh via a phone message. Later, the bodies of several women are discovered, all missing one hand, and all facing in the same direction.

Milo enlists the help of a young detective who works out of the same station house as he, and so we're introduced to the Reed brothers. Moe is younger, and Aaron is older, having left the department and set out on his own as a private eye; the trick is that though they share a mother, their fathers were different, and so Aaron is black, Moe white. This makes for some interesting interplay between the two characters, and it also leads to True Detectives, which features the two of them as main characters.

I liked this book, but not spectacularly. It's not Kellerman's worst book, it's not his best either. It'd be good on a beach somewhere, I would imagine.
