※美國有史以來最好的偵探小說，當代美國偵探小說大師賈德諾最引以為傲的作品※以《梅森探案》聞名全球，當代美國偵探小說大師賈德諾最得意之作※美國書評家：「賈德諾所創造的妙探奇案系列，是美國有史以來最好的偵探小說。單就一件事就十分難得──柯白莎和賴唐諾真是絕配！」※賈德諾與英國最著名的偵探推理作家阿嘉沙．克莉絲蒂是同時代人物，一般常識非常豐富的專業偵探推理小說家。※當代美國偵探小說的大師，毫無疑問，應屬以「梅森探案」系列轟動了世界文壇的賈德諾（E. Stanley Gardner）最具代表性。但事實上，「梅森探案」並不是賈氏最引以為傲的作品，因為賈氏本人曾一再強調：「妙探奇案系列」才是他以神來之筆創作的偵探小說巔峰成果。「妙探奇案系列」中的男女主角賴唐諾與柯白莎，委實是妙不可言的人物，極具趣味感、現代感與人性色彩；而每一本故事又都高潮迭起，絲絲入扣，讓人讀來愛不忍釋，堪稱是別開生面的偵探傑作。賈氏「妙探奇案系列」，（Bertha Cool─Donald Lanm Mystery）第一部《來勢洶洶》在美國出版的時候，作者用的筆名是「費爾」（A. A. Fair）。幾個月之後，引起了美國律師界、司法界極大的震動。看似百般不搭，卻又意外合拍的偵探搭擋故事情節精心佈局，緊張處令人透不過氣他們不是俊男美女配，也不是志同道合的夥伴，他們甚至對很多事物的看法完全相反，尤其是對美女的看法。然而，他們卻是永遠的偵探絕配！又胖又愛錢的柯白莎和又乾癟又精明的賴唐諾是柯氏私家偵探社的老闆與員工，賴唐諾形容柯白莎像一捆帶刺的鐵絲網，柯白莎說賴唐諾掉在水裡撈起來，連衣服帶水不到一百三十磅。柯白莎我行我素，不講究衣著，不在意體重，要她掏出錢比要她的命還痛苦。賴唐諾法學院畢業，靠精通法律常識，在法律邊緣薄冰上溜來溜去。溜得合夥人怕怕，警察恨恨，優點是對當事人永遠忠心。背著妻子的一夜情賓館竟發生謀殺案唐諾臨危受命冒名頂替然而指紋卻說出了不一樣的真相委託人：任加同（一個靠著太太減少奮鬥二十年的凱子）特別任務：冒名頂替「浦加同」先生，與美女「浦太太」在汽車賓館共渡一晚案件狀況：第一次背著太太邀美女外宿的任加同，卻因為賓館發生謀殺案，即將成為警方傳喚的對象。害怕被富家妻子發現的他，願花大把鈔票請唐諾頂替自己，帶著當晚的美女重返案發的賓館，讓警方訊問。由於這項任務簡單卻燙手，很可能誤導警方而被吊銷執照。謹慎的唐諾
