Synopsis

A series of successful professional men are found slashed to death in their beds, apparently during sex, the presumed victims of a gay murderer. Homicide detective Max Segal is on the case, but he’s distracted by his failing marriage and an attractive journalist who is covering the case. Judy Wells has everyone fooled, including the police. She’s been methodically stalking, seducing, and murdering every man who has ever dumped her—and her revenge seems almost justified. But the FBI is closing in. Despite his troubles, Max isn’t far behind, and as the players speed toward an inevitable confrontation, readers are in for a surprising and explosive climax.Like Fear Itself and Love Kills, Dan Greenburg’s other bestselling thrillers, Exes is a terrifyingly realistic, darkly humorous, startlingly sexual, street-tough page-turner with a surprising climax.

I read the first book in the Max Segal trilogy several years ago and really enjoyed it. This one sat on my "next-to-read" shelf for quite a while, and I am pleased that I got to it. Dan Greenburg has created a wonderful character with Max. He is intelligent and witty, but also a very believable dete......more

Max is despicable in this book. Again the mostly-good plot is ruined by unnecessary vulgar language and descriptions......more

Goodreads review by Kevin on August 25, 2014

I read LOVE KILLS way back in 1978 and had no idea that he's continued the police character into two more books (the second one, EXES came out in 1990 and the third one FEAR ITSELF came out in 2014...so he's certainly taking his time with this series!). There's a dated feeling even when you consider......more

Goodreads review by Carol on August 13, 2016

This is the first of Dan Greenburg’s books I’ve read. It is the second in the Max Segal Series but can be read as a stand alone. It is a mixture of a psychological thriller and police procedural centering on one NYPD detective, Max Segal. It combines his professional and personal life with that of a s......more

Great grisly fun.” —New York Times Book Reviews“Greenburg’s chief skill is his ability to blend comedy, horror and tragedy in the same situation.” —Chicago Tribune“Greenburg weaves in enough plot twists and street-tough legalese to make these pages nearly turn by themselves.” —San Francisco Chronicle
