Review: Dan Stagg mysteries are different. Dan Stagg is a different. Dan Stagg is not like any investigator that I’ve read about so far. To him, sex is more than an integral part of life, it’s integral to any investigation he is working. And Lear certainly knows how to develop that part of the story. This is novel is erotic, let me repeat that – this novel is erotic. It’s also a mystery, and it’s definitely interesting from the first page to the last.
The story, though simple in nature, developed at a fast pace as Dan infiltrated a boxing promotion scheme to flush out the corruption it hid. Lear continuously fed me the details to that corruption ring so I had to continue reading. And that was easy since Lear’s writing style is enjoyable and effortless.
If you enjoy mystery laced with erotic scenes or maybe I should reverse that – If you enjoy erotic story lines laced with mystery, then In The Ring by James Lear will certainly give you plenty to enjoy.
