The Finch Factor / Michael A. Kahn / 287 pages / St. Louis Challenge

This is the eighth Rachel Gold mystery but it is not the last one.  Michael Kahn is currently writing number nine.   I was very disappointed to read that Jonathan Wolf had been written out of the seri3es.  Rachel is no a mother with a son and two stepdaughters.  She is still her inimitable self as her cases segue into murder investigations and disparate cases are revealed to be related.  Here Rachel represents home-owners who are about to lose their homes through eminent domain and TIF.  Can Rachel stop the bulldozers?
