Mystery
An all-new story starring Adrian Monk by Edgar®
Award–nominated Monk screenwriter and coexecutive producer
Hy Conrad. It’s compulsive, page-turning fun. Monk and Natalie have finally settled into a new office
routine. Now they just need to work things out with their
neighbors—a print shop run by hippies whose music leaks
through the walls, driving Monk nuts. But the detectives
soon have a more serious conflict to deal with: Captain
Stottlemeyer’s new lieutenant, A.J. Cartledge—a man of
limited skills whom Monk finds insufferable. Even the presence of Lieutenant Cartledge won’t keep Monk
and Natalie from attending the funeral of Judge Oberlin, and
it’s a good thing. In typical fashion, Monk examines the
body in the casket—and finds evidence of poison. The judge
was murdered. While there are no traces of the poison at the judge’s
house, Monk detects that there had been an intruder. The
next rainy day, when Captain Stottlemeyer begins to show the
same symptoms, Monk deduces that there’s a diabolical killer
at work, someone who wanted both the judge and the captain
dead. Monk and Natalie turn to the captain’s ex-lieutenant
in Summit, New Jersey for help, but even that might not be
enough to solve this crime. With his friend in danger and an
enemy close, Monk will have to put his reservations aside to
crack the case in time.
