This is the second in the Asperger's Mysteries. In this one Samuel is worried about making the payment on his office space, when a woman comes in wanting him to confirm the identity of her new husband. Samuel can figure out anything that can be measured or recorded, but is totally out of his depth when it comes to relationships. So he calls Ms Washburn to help. It takes some coaxing to get her to come back, and he has to promise her husband she will be in absolutely no danger during the case. It is a promise that he has a very hard time keeping.
This was another really fun, really clean mystery. The solution was a little easier to see on this one, but it isn't only the mystery that makes these books enjoyable, it is the characters. There is one scene in this book where Samuel goes on a date with one of the suspects. She is not at all as sensitive about Samuel's Aspergers as Ms Washburn is, and it is pretty hilarious, especially when the date ends with a high speed car chase. (2015, 279 p.)
