by E.C.R Lorac
| [edit] | 2.5★ I’ll make this review short & sweet. I really enjoyed an earlier Lorac I read, Fell Murder, but this one fell (tee hee!) more than a little flat. I did really enjoy the travelogue-like descriptions of Vienna. I’ve been to this city twice, both times a long time ago, & loved both visits. But when the mystery began, I rapidly became bored. There was so much repetition on quite trivial matters that the whole story just dragged. By the time of the resolution, I no longer cared who had done it. If I read any more Lorac, it will be books earlier in her career than this one. |
