A clumsy robotics researcher scrambles to cover up a double homicide
Despite his name, King Sarcowicz is hardly regal. A rumpled scientist, he spends every waking minute in his lab, tinkering with the robots he thinks will make human soldiers obsolete. It seems impossible that this gentle soul could create a killing machine, and in fact, he never will. Long before his robot is operational, King himself will become a killer.
Working late in his lab, King commits a pair of clumsy blunders that lead to the deaths of two of his fellow scientists. In shock, he disappears into the streets of New York. When he’s finally confronted by NYPD detective Marian Larch, he lies to save his own skin. To discover what caused the tragedy in King’s lab, Larch will have to do more than outsmart this brilliant scientist—she’ll have to think like him too.
Good King Sauerkraut is the 3rd book in the Marian Larch Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Good King Sauerkraut The Marian Larch Mysteries Book 3 edition by Barbara Paul Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks
This was difficult to rate. It's an interesting study of an extreme (even farcical) case of why people shouldn't try tampering with evidence and lying to police. But it isn't a story of crime or detection.Product details

Good King Sauerkraut The Marian Larch Mysteries Book 3 edition by Barbara Paul Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
Barbara Paul is one of the great "unknowns" in the mystery field. Although her amazing, witty, funny, suspenseful, brilliantly crafted (enough adjectives?) novels have been keeping fans enthralled for years, she has never been accorded the due that is her... er... uh... due! GKS is as good a place as any to start. It really doesn't matter, in a way, because wherever you start, you're going to want, nay NEED, to read 'em all! As for titles, good as this is, wait 'til you meet "Liars, and Tyrants, and People Who Turn Blue"!
I've never thought Barbara Paul is as well-known as she should be. I enjoy her characterizations, her clear and readable style, and her wit. I have some problems with this book, though. King Sarcowicz, stuck with the demeaning nickname Sauerkraut for reasons that don't make much sense, is a klutzy, insensitive, work-obsessed genius. At some level, he's aware of his own failings--he doesn't mean to be a jerk, he just has little empathy for others. I really wanted to pull for the guy. Through sheer clumsiness, he accidently kills two team members and then compounds this by digging himself deeper and deeper into trouble.
So far so good, but as the story wends to its end, I became less and less satisfied. Did King learn anything from his ordeal? Nothing positive. Was justice served by the ending? Didn't feel that way to me. If Paul wasn't going to give us a traditional good guys win/bad guys are punished story, then something more was needed--humor, perhaps, to poke fun at the stereotypes she flouted.
My Eyelids are Growing Heavy is a wonderful example of Paul at her best. This story I rank as OK.
I have read 3 of Paul's books so far, and loved two of them. I dont know how, but for a large portion of Sauerkraut and Wolf to the Slaughter, Paul had me rooting, or at least liking, the 'bad guy(s)'. The writing is well done and the plot interesting . I've ordered more
This was difficult to rate. It's an interesting study of an extreme (even farcical) case of why people shouldn't try tampering with evidence and lying to police. But it isn't a story of crime or detection.
