A light fun tropical read.,
By nobizinfla "nobizinfla" (Windermere, Florida USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beauty and the Beast (Mass Market Paperback)
I like Ed McBain's Mathew Hope series. While not as complicated, noir or hardboiled as the 87th Precinct novels, they are great fun and witty.This one was almost a short story. Good workable plot, a couple interesting sidebars, enjoyable characters and a resolution you can accept. The Florida scene is well set in the fictitious city of Calussa with a couple of Miami excursions. Mathew Hope is an interesting protagonist...a lawyer with a heart of gold willing to be a private eye for his client as well. It's fast, easy and entertaining.

I BROUGHT THE BOOK IN FLORIDA, WHERE MATTHEW HOPE LIVES. I LIKE THE CHARACTER MORRIS BLOOM. HE MAKES ME LAUGH. THE THINGS MATTHEW SAYS MAKE ME LAUGH ALSO. IN THIS STORY, BEAUTY WAS THE BEAST. I LOOK FORWARD TO READING ED MCBAIN'S 87TH STREET PRECINCT BOOKS ALSO.
