In An Uncertain Accomplice you will find that author Donald Levin has spun a mystery around one death that led to another death which led to yet another death. Private Investigator Martin Preuss decided to take a case after the prospective client died. His curiosity got the wheels turning, but someone was determined he would not find the accomplice in a murder which happened almost 20 years previously. As Preuss unravels the connection the Seldon family had with the murderer, he finds there are many skeletons in this rich and influential family's closet, which someone is desperately trying to keep concealed. With the initial murderer in prison, no one expected an accomplice when it did not come out in the trial, until the daughter sought justice.

Be prepared as you embark on this twisted mysterious thriller. Donald Levin gives Martin Preuss an eye for details which the reader will enjoy, but makes him seem larger than life as he cares for his special needs son. An Uncertain Accomplice is more than just a novel as you not only look into the process of detective work, but also the care of a child with cerebral palsy. An Uncertain Accomplice is well written and researched, making the reader feel they know Preuss. I thought Levin would have brought Preuss's oldest son into the book, but it ended as if we would read more about both of these men, and anticipating a sequel. I loved how the killer twisted everyone to do their bidding without anyone knowing what was being done.
