Kinky Friedman has always proven himself to be a master of the
offbeat and irreverent, and still manages to pull off a helluva
whodunit in the process. Now the Kinkster may have met his match in
this superbly crafted, fiendishly clever tale of a murderer who's
methodically killing off unsuspecting Manhattan men. Gallingly, all
clues point toward Kinky.
Greenwich Village is the setting for "Ten Little New Yorkers, "
a tale of murder and mayhem as only Friedman can warble it and
featuring his usual suspects, including Ratso -- Dr. Watson to
Kinky's singular Sherlock Holmes. As the clues and bodies pile up
and the cops strong-arm Kinky as their man, he has to jump through
hoops to find the real killer, all the while maintaining his
outrage and, of course, his innocence. The murderer may be someone
close to Kinky, which leads to a shocker of an ending that will
surely take Kinky devotees completely by surprise.
With a wink and a nod to Dame Agatha (as in Christie), after
which all resemblance to those classic mysteries fades, this is one
of Friedman's most complex and irresistible page-turners yet.
Cunningly tentous issues of life, death, guilt, innocence, love,
loss, and the danger of false confessions, this is Kinky Friedman
at his wily, suspenseful, and sacrilegious best.
