Welcome to the series of original mysteries starring Adrian Monk, the brilliant investigator who always knows when something’s out of place….
Of all the things that make Adrian Monk uneasy, change ranks high on the list. So when Natalie completes her P.I. license—and technically becomes Monk’s boss—it’s not easy for him to accept.
