The Rabbit Factory by Marshall Karp

Recommended by Irene
FIC Karp

Marshall Karp is a screenwriter and playwright. This is his first novel. He has created two LAPD cops, Mike Lomax and his partner Terry Biggs, who are smart, drop-dead funny (especially Terry), and as irreverent as two guys can be. Karp has also written a ripping good story, not counting on buddy-cop banter to carry the day.
The setting of much of the action is "Familyland," a Disneyland clone, conceived of by the late Dean Lamaar, who, like Disney, started out as an animator. Someone is killing off employees and it's escalating. Don't be put off by the size of this book. It's a quick read and there are two more books in the series already out.
