Book #11 of 2019 is Nightmare in Pink by John D. MacDonald. #3 of the Travis McGee series. Slightly less fun than the previous one because I wasn't totally satisfied with the way he manages to extricate himself from the situation near the end.

Also something I realized I prefer about MacDonald's writing compared to Lee Child (for instance) is that he doesn't go into a blow-by-blow account of physical action/fights. I find that I tend to mostly gloss over those parts of other books since it's not worth trying to build a mental video of the fight because it's a lot of effort and only the outcomes of the fight are relevant to the plot. MacDonald likewise tends to gloss over the details which saves me some time :)
