R B Dominic (and Emma Lathen -- same author duo) wrote some of my favourite mysteries. The hero is a congressman and the stories examine an American political issue, and examine it brilliantly. It's not preachy, but there are sharp comments, great characters and the mystery is always solid. Now that...
Congressman Ben Safford gets caught up in an international incident that leads to murder when one of his constituents, a young woman who tends to act before she thinks, gets herself kicked out of a South American country. Not nearly as good as the first book in the series.
A mystery that weaves socio-political commentary into an ironic thread through the whole story, yet is definitely a cosy. The fact that it's 30 years old? Doesn't matter. Nuclear reactors remain a hot button issue. Wonderful. I'm such a fan of the whole series.
Given the health care debate, read the suggested changes to Medicine included in this mystery novel.
