If you weren't up for springing for the hardcover last winter it's now available in trade paperback . The NY Journal of Books said "Pick this one up for light entertainment, flawless narrative and a charming throwback to the great of what a city crime novel once delivered."

I can never, ever decide which Albert Brooks movie is my favorite but I can report that MOTHER holds up really well to a third viewing.
