Nick of Time by Tim Downs

I have to admit a fondness for Tim Down's character, Nick. I have read every book Mr. Downs has written with Nick Polchak as a main character. In this novel, the Bug Man has proposed to Alena, the dog trainer, and is getting married in less than a week. Nick goes to a meeting of other like-minded individuals and notices that his friend, Pete Boudreau, whom he was to meet, is missing. Nick can't resist finding out what has happened to Pete and he goes to his home. Of course, while he is there, he discovers that Pete is probably dead. With the clock ticking down to his wedding, he takes off to unravel the mystery of Pete's disappearance. Along the way he discovers the truth about Pete's death and the truth about his true feelings for Alena.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Tim Downs keep the plot moving along and the reader wondering about what will happen next. The twists were totally unexpected, but satisfying. I found myself ready to read the next installment of the Bug Man novels. I hope Tim won't leave his readers hanging for long! If you enjoy quirky characters and a good mystery, don't miss this book! You'll enjoy it even if you are new to the Bug Man series.
