Estott Rather a dry mystery, even for the period. I've read worse mysteries that were more entertaining.

I know how you feel, I too was severely disappointed by this as an introduction to the series (Luckily I did enjoy Murder on the Links)' also the lack of characterisation and convoluted pacing didn't help things either.

Kimber This one was a dnf for me.

Martha Oh, darn- I have very few Agatha’s Christie’s on my book shelf and this is one of the few. Hmpf. I’ll not rush to read.

Neeraj Bharti Hello, dear Kerwin. Would you like to try your hands on a book I wrote, "The Curse To Ashwathama". Though it is available on Amazon and all other platforms, it is also available on Netgalley if you want to read it for free, and leave your reviews/ comments. You can skim through the first 2 chapters free on my website , in case it generates some interest in you.


Greg Hi Bill, I like those floorplans. Sometimes There Be Clues!
