Has Someone Designed the Perfect Murder?
Edison Bixby is a brilliant detective who sees patterns others don’t is seemingly innocent “accidents.” But a brain injury has left him with a poor filter. Enter Wally Nash, a struggling actor who is his new assistant. Their first case involves a woman who fell down an in-construction staircase in a mall. Bixby quickly determines that it was murder. But can he find the killer?

The set up with these characters provides plenty of opportunities for comedy, and I enjoy much of it, although at times, it didn’t quite land. Still, I enjoyed getting to know them. While Bixby says some stuff he shouldn’t, I actually expected him to be pushing a few more boundaries. And I am ready to move into his house! The mystery kept me entertained, although I did feel the ending was a little weaker than it could be. Overall, I enjoyed this new series and look forward to reading more about these characters.
