Yes, thi...You took the words right out of my mind! Yes, this is exactly the kind of mystery I like, too, good characters, interesting plot and no gore. But one more characteristic I found that crime fiction readers often require: the reader and the detective find out plot developments at the same time so the reader can solve the crime, too. No mysterious suddenly appears from Sicily, no clue shows up at the end unexpectedly, no surprises that would throw the reader off kilter.<br />The plot develops and everything unfolds for the detectives and the reader simultaneously.<br />I also sat for two days, undisturbed, with my iced tea and snacks and did nothing but read until I was finished. I had a feeling of satisfaction when I turned the last page, and thought "this is the type of crime fiction I like." <br />I can't wait for the next book either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129427507761315524.post-11272804283375987442015-07-15T06:50:48.062+01:002015-07-15T06:50:48.062+01:00I am looking forward to reading the book.
