Monk is horrified when he learns there's going to be a blue flu in San Francisco-until Capt. Stottlemeyer explains that it just means the police plan to call in "sick" until they get a better contract.The good news is the labor dispute will give Monk a chance to get back on the force.The bad news is it means he'll be a "scab"-and he doesn't like the sound of that either.
But before he knows it, Monk has his badge back, and his own squad to command. Unfortunately, some of the squad members make Monk look like a paragon of mental health. But despite the challenges, they'll have to pull together to catch an astrologer's killer, solve a series of mysterious fatal assaults, and most importantly, clean up their desks.

Format:Taschenbuch
Was soll man zu Monk noch sagen? Wer die Fernsehserie mag, wird die Bücher lieben. Die englische Sprache ist auf einem verständlichen Weg eingesetzt worden und stellt keinerlei Barriere dar. Das Buch wird durch Monk's Assistentin Nathalie geschildert, wobei sie immer versucht alles mit Humor zu nehmen und ihrem Chef in allen Lebenslagen zu helfen. Die Handlung ist durchdacht und wird ebenso durch Nebenhandlungen erweitert, bevor es zum monktypischen Finale kommt.
Dieses Buch ist ebenso wie die anderen Monk Romane ein Muss für Monkfans und sollte in keinem Bücherregal fehlen!

Call me hooked!
31. Januar 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
--Ever since Monk discovered a while back that the kindly old woman I used as a babysitter murdered her husband and buried him in her backyard, day care has been a problem for me.
Call me hooked! I love a laugh out loud mystery but they're not all that easy to find. I hit upon a real winner with Mr. Monk and the Blue Flu, by Lee Goldberg. Before I begin, I should confess, I've never seen the Monk show so I can judge this book purely on its own merits. I was entranced by the wonderful relationship between the nutty Monk and his faithful sidekick right from page one. It opens with a crime scene unfortunately located in a dog park and Monk's horror at having to approach the canine mine field is hilarious. The humor runs strong throughout the story but not at the expense of the mystery thread. I thought the astrological chart connection was ingenious (I resist the urge to spoil anything here) and the ragtag collection of oddball cops that Monk must bring in when he is promoted to chief during a police strike add a great dimension also.
Monk's genius is a double edged animal as he is in perpetual state of anxiety. He sees what's wrong in the world and his burden is to set it right. With an almost Sherlockian ability to make connections from the seemingly random, his struggle is both heartwarming and hilarious. Picture a tactical assault team ready to storm a building. One of the cops asks a Kevlar vested Monk if he is carrying a weapon.
--Monk reached into his pocket and pulled out half a dozen packets of disinfectant wipes. "They kill germs on contact," Monk said.
Wyatt grimaced in disgust. "Remain behind me and take cover when the shooting starts."
Monk nodded. "And when should I begin cowering?"
Now this is a hero I want to read about. I'm looking forward to enjoying all of Lee Goldberg's Monk series. Who knows? I may have to break down and watch the show. Nah. Books are always better anyway.

outstanding detective work
1. Dezember 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
Monk is pressed into duty on the SFPD after the regular cops stage an illegal walk out. He gets a group of misfit detectives under him, and quickly has to deal with several homicides. Lots of classic Monk OCD humor, and plenty of spectacular aha moments as Monk cleans up the city. I read the Monk-Firehouse book, and thought it was very good... but this one is even better!

I MISS MONK
10. Januar 2011
Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is the first Monk book I have read. I really miss this show and was hoping this book would help fill the void.It did, but just a little. The story line was great, but Monk was a bit too one dimensional. His funny antics made me laugh, though they were close to over the top and the B crew he is placed in command of was over the top. Any one of them would have worked well into the story, but all together they were too much. The book was written in a way that gave Natalie more depth of character than Monk. As a big Monk fan, I know him well, and was able to fill in the gaps. Perhaps this was intended by the author, as this was written more like a 30 minute episode than a one hour movie. However, I miss the sadness, complexity and the bravery involved in facing his fears. I intend to read more of the series in search of this.
