Isaiah Quintabe--IQ for short--has never been more successful, or felt more alone. A series of high-profile wins in his hometown of East Long Beach have made him so notorious that he can hardly go to the corner store without being recognized. Dodson, once his sidekick, is now his full-fledged partner, hell-bent on giving IQ's PI business some real legitimacy: a Facebook page, and IQ's promise to stop accepting Christmas sweaters and carpet cleanings in exchange for PI services.So when a young painter approaches IQ for help tracking down her missing mother, it's not just the case Isaiah's looking for, but the human connection. And when his new confidant turns out to be connected to a dangerous paramilitary operation, IQ falls victim to a threat even a genius can't see coming.Waiting for Isaiah around every corner is Seb, the Oxford-educated African gangster who was responsible for the death of his brother, Marcus. Only, this time, Isaiah's not alone. Joined by a new love interest and his familiar band of accomplices, IQ is back--and the adventures are better than ever.

“He took a sip. The coffee wasn‘t tasty or choice. It tasted brown.”
This might be the most relatable thing I‘ve ever read.

I absolutely love this series, and the addition of Grace is awesome! We are huge Joe Ide fans at the bookstore, and I can't wait to read more books about IQ! #Recomendsday

I love this series, but I'm glad I waited to binge read a few of them in a row! Listening to book 3 right now, in anticipation of Joe's return to our bookstore!

I liked the first book in series the most, and the second almost as much. The third is hyper-violent and not as well-written.

I binged this entire series on audiobook and hate that the 4th book isn‘t available yet! 😩 #pocauthor #weneeddiversebooks #ownvoices

MicheleinPhilly I‘ve read the first and REALLY liked it. Think I need to re-read before continuing because it‘s been so long. 4y
MidnightBookGirl I loved the first book and I have the newer ones, I really need to do a binge read soon! 4y
Chelleo @MidnightBookGirl @MicheleinPhilly I forgot I placed a hold on it and once I started listening I immediately put holds on the others. 4y

A great IQ novel from Joe Ide, highly recommended.

Isaiah and Dodson reunite with Deronda to help Grace, a new client, find her mother. Old and new enemies appear including a group of Blackhawk-like mercenaries with a sordid past in Abu Ghraib.

Imagine the Isaiah, the good guys, and the bad guys at Burning Man and you‘ll have a sense of why this is a must-read.

About 5 hours into #24in48 and first book done! I really liked the first two in this series but wasn‘t as crazy about this one... definitely a quick and entertaining read though. Switching to audio for a bit now 📚

Just finishing up this book after a quick nap and found the epigraph for the #hoursix #24in48 challenge. I must say I don‘t like this one as much as the previous books in the series but I can always appreciate a good Walter Mosley quote 😉 now back to reading 📚 ☕️

This is the third in the IQ series and I love them - full of people behaving badly, sometimes it‘s even the good guys (looking at you, Dodson) behaving badly. And now I‘m being a bad library citizen because this thing is overdue but I‘m almost done and didn‘t want to wait weeks to get it again.

Third book in the IQ series and sadly I like each one less, the first book was so good, not sure I'll be reading the next one. 😕

❓????❔⁉️ #Audiobook #TBR #BookwormProblems #ForTheLoveOfBooks

Trying to decide which title I'll be picking with my next #Audible credit later this month.... decisions decisions.

It's between French's latest 'The Witch Elm" or the newest IQ mystery, "Wrecked"(tagged).

Strongly leaning toward IQ, I just love that series & character AND it's gotten rave reviews- was just released today! ?
