"Mr. Monk on Patrol" (Book Review)

This book is the thirteenth book in a series of paperback and hardback books continuing the Monk series.  Alice and I really have enjoyed reading these books and find that they are filled with laughs and clean humor.  The books are all "narrated" by Natalie and remind us of the brilliant yet quirky mind of Monk.

This book finds Monk and Natalie travelling to Summit, New Jersey, to help Randy Disher with crimes that he faces in his new "charge."  Randy "left" the series when it ended and joined Sharona (Monk's former nurse) as police chief in Summit.  In this book he has Monk assist in solving a series of burglaries and then a murder mystery.  The narrative includes a side trip to New York and finds Monk and Natalie "in uniform" to assist Randy in his work.

It ends with things "up in the air" as Monk and Natalie consider continuing their work in New Jersey.

Hey, it's harmless fun and a nice way to spend a few days in reading this wonderful book.
