    The first book is set in the 80s and 90s, focusing on crime-solving with minimal technology; clues were painstakingly pieced together. A second book has been released, but I haven't read it yet. The second book has a unique female lead and decent cases, but I didn't like the male lead. The romance between the leads felt unnecessary, and the last part isn't a case at all; it's more like a murder mystery game, which I think can be skipped. The third book, while not about detective work, features very touching cases and is quite enjoyable. The chemistry between the leads is excellent.
