I'm a sucker for these books. Look down your nose if you must, but I like the character of Adrian Monk and I enjoy veteran TV mystery writer, Lee Goldberg's take on the continuing and ever evolving, Monkverse. Apparently this is the penultimate Mr. Monk book. Goldberg uses Monk's long-suffering assistant, Natalie as the narrator of his books. Unlike most expanded universe tie-in books, he calls back characters and events from previous books and TV episodes, weaves a decent mystery and moves the g I'm a sucker for these books. Unlike most expanded universe tie-in books, he calls back characters and events from previous books and TV episodes, weaves a decent mystery and moves the growth of the characters forward. This is probably the part I most enjoy. The book begins with a fun mystery an excerpt of which was published as a short in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, and shortlisted for an Edgar Award. Things aren't going well. Well, they are, sort of. Apparently hired in part because of a reputation as a competent, but ridiculous cop, the folks who hired him didn't count on how personable, earnest and hard-working Disher is or his uncanny ability to literally stumble into mysteries. Disher found and reported rampant, years-long corruption in the Summit city government. This lead to the resignation of the mayor and most of the town council. Now, by charter, Disher is also its acting mayor!? Disher is swamped and needs Monk's help for a few weeks as acting members of the Summit PD. In the books, Natalie, with Capt. Stottlemeyer and Monk's encouragement, has grown into her own as a detective, even taking on some of her own cases. Disher has heard this and wants Natalie too, not just as Monk's assistant, but as his colleague. The mystery is secondary and pretty transparent but the fun is in Monk's reactions to the city, Summit's odd characters, patrol duty with Natalie, living with "the Disher's" and a very intriguing woman who operates a shop called, Poo. In trying to close down her emporium of filth, he discovers she has a kind and giving heart, a wry intelligence and a case of symmetrical obsession that rivals his own. I really enjoyed the character arcs in this one. It ends with a life-changing cliff-hanger for Monk and Natalie. A cliff-hanger that the publisher completely spoils by including the first chapter of the next, and final Monk book. Monk on Patrol gave me a few hours of enjoyment. It also gave good fan and character service. That works for me. View all 3 comments. May 25, Michael crage rated it really liked it. I enjoyed the detective parts of the book, but I also enjoyed the interaction between the people involved and the humor.

For those familiar with the TV series of the same name, you know how funny the character of Monk can be without knowing it. The same is true in the novel. Here Mr. Monk and his trusty assistant Natalie in all things a detective needs and a hypochondriac, too, are whisked off to Summit, New Jersey by Sharona his former assistant of long ago. The scenes describing getting him from San Francisco to New Jersey are hilarious. Once in Summit, the current police chief and acting mayor a close friend For those familiar with the TV series of the same name, you know how funny the character of Monk can be without knowing it. Once in Summit, the current police chief and acting mayor a close friend from San Francisco and Sharona's live-in mate makes them temporary police officers to help him clean up the burgularies and eventual murder. Given a gun, Monk wants to shoot everyone he believes is not obeying the law. Given the police car to drive, Natalie wants to use the siren and lights to go two blocks. From lining up the cars on the streets by color and make, and seeing that they are parked precisely the same distance apart, to encountering a lovely woman who runs a shop called Poop, to tracing the murderer and preventing another murder, this book makes you eagerly await the next one in the series. I just don't know what to say about this book--everything I think to say about Goldberg's Monk books, I think I've said before. Great storytelling, great use of the characters inherited from the show, good mystery. Goldberg specializes in taking Monk out of San Francisco and putting him in a circumstance that even non-OCD types would find unappealing at best --and he does it to the nines this time. Thankfully, even in the midst of horror and unfamiliarity, Monk and we get a little dose of hom I just don't know what to say about this book--everything I think to say about Goldberg's Monk books, I think I've said before. Thankfully, even in the midst of horror and unfamiliarity, Monk and we get a little dose of home: Randy and Sharona! So nice to get this peak at their new life in Jersey. Hope TPTB let him go through with it, it'll be great to read will probably be great to read if they don't, too. My only quibble is that Monk uses the epithet, "hell," pretty frequently--I'm not sure if he's ever said it in either the show or Goldberg's works, but I'm willing to bet that it wasn't anywhere near this often. Dec 01, Laura Cushing rated it it was amazing. One of my favorite supporting characters is back. Randy Disher, now police chief and acting mayor in a small town in NJ, needs Monk and Natalie to help him with his police shortage. They find themselves both in uniform investigating a string of burglaries and a murder. Monk finds himself fighting his revulsion and mistrust of a local business and its proprietor-- it's a store called Poop that sells various products made of dung.

It's great to see old favorites Randy and Sharona again, too. This is a fun addition to the monk series of books. So sad that there are only a couple left to go. Sep 10, David Nadolny rated it it was amazing. Boy, did this author capture the essence of the actors on TV. You can literally see them acting out the book in your mind as you read through. Perhaps this is because the author wrote some of the TV episodes. Either way, I am going to look for more. Jan 12, Mirkat rated it really liked it. Near the end of the eighth and final season of the show, viewers learned that Randy Disher had accepted an offer to become chief of police in Summit, New Jersey and would be moving in with Sharona Fleming, Monk's former assistant and nurse. Randy and Sharona had been pursuing a romance off-screen. In Mr. Because of a financial scandal involving local government, Randy is acting Near the end of the eighth and final season of the show, viewers learned that Randy Disher had accepted an offer to become chief of police in Summit, New Jersey and would be moving in with Sharona Fleming, Monk's former assistant and nurse. Because of a financial scandal involving local government, Randy is acting mayor while also continuing as chief of police. Usually there is little to no crime in sleepy Summit, but lately there has a been a string of burglaries. With scrutiny from the state government, he really needs Monk's detecting skills. Monk is, as usual, reluctant to travel, but Sharona arrives in person to apply her own brand of persuasion. The "Monk" books, like the show, generally fit a pattern I hate to say "formula" because that sounds pejorative, and I don't mean it that way. Readers who, like me, have read all of the other books will find the usual building blocks of a "Monk" mystery, but with enough new elements to keep things interesting. And it's fun to catch up with Randy and Sharona. Monk even experiences some rather surprising personal growth. There is a cliffhanger of sorts at the end, but not the annoying kind that will make you want to throw the book across the room because you've invested your time in completing the book only to find that nothing has been resolved. The mysteries are resolved, but Monk and Natalie both have intriguing decisions to make. I'll be very curious to find out what they choose when Goldberg publishes his next installment. Sep 19, Alex rated it really liked it. It was so nice to be back reading a Monk book, I've really missed them! I am very upset that the next book due out will be the last, it has been so nice to continue the stories after the show ended. This book was particularly great for me, since it had Monk and Natalie going to stay with Sharona and Disher in New Jersey. Goldberg writes her perfectly. I always thought her and Disher were adorable when they flirted together in the first few seasons, and I loved the It was so nice to be back reading a Monk book, I've really missed them! I always thought her and Disher were adorable when they flirted together in the first few seasons, and I loved the pairing of them in the last season, so it was nice to see their life together. His intense love for Trudy was always so sweet to me, and I'm just not sure how I feel about him falling for someone else. View 2 comments. Jan 24, Kathy rated it really liked it. Gosh, I really love these books and I'm sad that Goldberg will stop writing them soon. Monk and Natalie head off to New Jersey to help out Randy who's not only the Sheriff in town but also the acting Mayor thanks to wholesale corruption in the city government. As it usually happens around Monk, someone gets killed, multiple crimes are solved and Monk continues to amaze with his talents. It's nice to see Natalie and Monk progressing as characters and fun that Randy and Sharona were in the story. Th Gosh, I really love these books and I'm sad that Goldberg will stop writing them soon. The book ends on a cliffhanger which makes me want to read the next one that much sooner. Jan 23, Mark Baker rated it it was amazing Shelves: mystery , Monk and Natalie are off to Summit, New Jersey, to help new police chief Randy Disher gain a handle on the string of burglaries plaguing the normally quiet town. This book is an absolute treat for fans of the TV show and Lee's novels based on them because of what he does with the characters. Read my full review at Carstairs Considers. Jan 19, Kent rated it it was amazing. Another great Mr. His disorders and obsessions are still as clever and annoying as ever as are his detective skills. It's great to see him in different settings and situations. Be warned however, the ending is a cliffhanger. It appears the only way to find out the answer is to read the next book in the series. Jun 05, Glen rated it really liked it. Monk goes on the road once again, this time to New Jersey, to help out his old friends, Randy Disher and Sharona. Since the ending of the series, Goldberg has taken the neurotic detective well out of his comfort zone, and developed the character of Natalie Teeger. The puzzles are fairly simple, but the rest of the book makes up for it. Apr 13, Malia rated it it was amazing. I think Mr. Monk is geting more interesting as he travels, and this is a goody, even with all that crap. And Natalie is beginning to shine. Good job!!!

Another successful installment for the Obsessive-Compulsive Detective and his assistant, Natalie. For avid reader's and faithful followers of Adrian Monk, some disappointment was inevitable when Randy left San Francisco to live with Sharona on the other side of the country. But never fear, they're back in the story, as Adrian and Natalie spend a few weeks in New Jersey to give a hand solving crimes. After a fantastic run on television, and twelve previous books, the charm and intrigue have not fad Another successful installment for the Obsessive-Compulsive Detective and his assistant, Natalie. After a fantastic run on television, and twelve previous books, the charm and intrigue have not faded. The crimes in this book are, as usual, very interesting, seemingly unsolvable. Add Adrian Monk, and you'll find yourself saying, "Of course, why didn't I see that? One that puts Monk in a situation that makes you smile and cheer for the mentally skewed detective; another that will challenge everything you thought you knew about the man; and yet another that leaves you wondering about the future of Adrian Monk.

Stottlemeyer, like many of the characters in the show, can be viewed as a parallel to Detective Monk's character,.

The CSIs had retreated into the dining room. The two of them stood in the doorway, gloved and bootied and with the smallest of smirks crinkling their mouths. Stottlemeyer brushed his bushy mustache, but I could tell he was smiling. They fight. And Ebersol gets stabbed. It was a mess all right. On more than one occasion, when his OCD was particularly bad, the captain and I had to forcibly keep him from straightening up. There had been one case where he came back after the CSIs left and scrubbed an entire crime scene apartment. The killer actually got her cleaning deposit back. In fact, the whole house could have used some work. On the plus side, the victim was alive. Stottlemeyer had stayed behind at the first house. At this scene, our tour guide was Lieutenant Devlin. It had taken me a while to get used to Amy Devlin. When she came here, Devlin brought a lot of that swagger with her. She was slightly taller than me, with an incredible body and short black hair that looked like it had been coiffed by Edward Scissorhands. He was staring down at an evidence bag in his hands. Inside was another bloody meat thermometer. His voice was trembling. But I was thinking it. Now we have two in one day? Less than a day. How far apart were these attacks? It was an elderly woman and she called it in without coming over to check. At around eight twenty, Ms. Phister called nine one one and reported the second attack. She had been luckier or stronger or just angrier than Barry Ebersol. When the paramedics arrived, she was lying in a pool of blood, left for dead, clutching a deep hole in her side. All the evidence points to this being the same perp. I stand corrected. The look he threw her was pure sarcasm. You think? A second later and he was opening and closing drawers. He finally found what he was looking for. It was a bottom drawer filled with a few dozen cooking utensils. Other author's books: Toured to Death.

Mr. Monk on Patrol - Wikipedia

The other good news is that I was with the show from beginning to end, for all eight years. I was the mystery guy, while everyone else had come from the world of comedy. Along the way, I think I had some influence on the way Monk talked and interacted. In other words, he wound up a little bit like me, which makes writing for him a pleasure. You can use some of the Monk stories we never got to do. Monk Helps Himself is one of those stories. There are dozens of great plots, half thought through, buzzing around in our collective memory. I also want to thank Lee Goldberg for creating this parallel universe and for taking such great care in preserving the characters and sending them off in new, unexpected directions. But I hope you can put up with a little. If you would like to say hello, I would love to hear from you, either on my Facebook fan page or at my Web site at hyconrad. Exactly one hundred. Whenever a new pops up, he has to either eliminate one of the old ones or, more often, combine a couple. Just last week, he was watching Animal Planet and discovered his horrific fear of aardvarks. But, in order to accommodate aardvarks, he had to lump together spiders and insects, even though spiders are not technically insects. As you probably already know, my boss is Adrian Monk—a man who has put away so many bad guys the state of California was thinking of naming a cell block after him. My name is Natalie Teeger, unlegendary, underpaid and overworked. But overworked like the assistant to a brilliant and very stubborn six-year-old. I know that sounds odd. Who in her right mind would move away from her friends and family and start over as a rookie cop? Natalie Teeger, I guess. I just felt it was important, for my self-esteem, to prove that I could be a cop on my own. Well, I did it. I proved it. With one big change. Monk and Teeger, Consulting Detectives. Back to the shiny object. When I rolled out of bed that Friday morning, I knew I had to come up with a distraction, something that would keep Monk from figuring out the real reason I needed this upcoming weekend off. I needed it. Or, worse, coming with me. Very shiny. I know how callous that sounds, but the murder would have happened anyway. And the most distracting object you can put in front of Adrian Monk is a good old-fashioned crime scene. The first home invasion was on Vernon Street in Ingleside Heights. When Monk and I ducked under the crime scene tape, we found ourselves inside a lovingly restored Craftsman bungalow. Captain Leland Stottlemeyer was there to greet us and hand us disposable gloves and those blue booties to fit over our shoes. He had been watch commander when Monk joined the force. The body, in this case, belonged to Barry Ebersol, midforties, a little soft through the middle, an account manager at an advertising agency.
