3.0 out of 5 stars Joyce Walther Returns, April 21, 2004

This review is from: Beginner's Luck (Paperback)
I have never understood the chapbook industry. Paying a lot for a single short story just doesn't seem right. But, when I can find one used for a decent price, I might check it out.

Young mystery writer Joyce Waltham has her second story published (the first was in Cardiac Arrest). Joyce is a promising author and a local hero for her involvement in the previous tale. This time she is shopping for copies of the magazine running her latest story when a policeman stops her to report a possible break-in at her car. Joyce follows the policeman to the parking lot and the story really begins. Joyce's detective mind is always at work.

This one is not quite as good as Cardiac Arrest as it lacks a similar level of surprise and twist. This one is far more straightforward. Still, it is an enjoyable little mystery. But do check out Cardiac Arrest first.

I wouldn't recommend paying a lot for this one but it is worth reading.
