Greg Rucka's "Shooting At Midnight" gives Bridget Logan's 1st
person POV for the first half of the book, then Kodiak's 1st
person POV for about one fourth of the book, finally going
back to Logan's for the last fourth. In
"Crimson Joy," Parker gives us several pages of the bad guy's
1st person POV at the begining of some of the chapters,
though not all if I remember correctly. The bad guy's POV is
in italics to set it off from Spenser's.
