Walking Dead, by Greg Rucka
I'd saved away a book to read while I was away at Jason's wedding: the new Atticus Kodiak novel, Walking Dead, by Greg Rucka. And, it was a well-selected book for the occasion. I started it on BART headed toward Fremont and finished it shortly after we got back home.

Though I'm going to mark this post with my 'mystery' tag, Walking Dead is a really a thriller (as is generally the case for the Kodiak books). I don't read a lot of these but Rucka's are quite good, because he's continually grown the series and evolved the hero over time. This time around, despite being in a really morally questionable situation, Kodiak pretty much acts the hero, going after the daughter of a friend when she's taken.

It's a really good book, as is this entire series (though the first couple are a bit weaker than what follows).
