Dave, a police officer, has dinner with Mom in the Bronx every Friday evening. Between the chicken soup and the schnecken, Dave talks about his current cases. Mom's long experience with scheming butchers, nosey neighbors, and eccentric relatives leads her to logical solutions to all Dave's mysteries.

Witty, wise, and filled with warmth, the Mom tales are some of the finest armchair detective stories ever written. Introduction by the author.
