# 40 -- Cherry Bomb

I've read all the J. A. Konrath books that center around the Jack Daniels character (except the latest one). I like the tough female cop, though she might be a little too tough for some readers. Konrath doesn't pull any punches and some of his villains are hard core.

In Cherry Bomb, the antagonist is one from previous books that just keeps popping up. She is a psychopath and makes no excuses for the pain she inflicts. This is NOT a book for the faint of heart. Though the story is good, the descriptions of the deaths, mutilations and sex may be too much for some readers.
