Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - still delightful
I was excited to read the next book in Isabel's series, and was far from disappointed. It was everything that previous books have led me to expect, and was a very pleasurable and quick read.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good read from the title to the end
As a mystery reader, you may have discovered that some authors drop you squarely into their plot from paragraph one on their very first page with an adrenalin-pumping, fast-paced chase or dilemma. The characters, their motivation, focus and flaws are then revealed at key points in the story.

That being said, Alexander McCall Smith first earns your trust as he introduces you up front to each of his colorful and appealing characters. You discover all of their virtues, flaws and beguiling ... Read More
