An inconsistent mystery with little suspense.
Michael Spraggue, vineyard owner, rich, actor, and a use to be private eye is out to solve the mystery of a dead body found in the trunk of his ex-girlfriend 's car, and current co-owner of his vineyard.

Michael Spraggue, vineyard owner, rich, actor, and a use to be private eye is out to solve the mystery of a dead body found in the trunk of his ex-girlfriend 's car, and current co-owner of his vineyard. The story, at times, held my attention, and at other times, I couldn't wait for it to be over. Ms. Barnes wasn't consistent with the plot or suspense of the "who-dun-it" scenario. She's written better.

The writing is good. Too bad Barnes didn't have a mystery to go with it. Spraggue and his pal Kate are stereotypes, and not ones I enjoy reading about. She's too everything -- too thin, too pretty, too smart, too sexy -- to be a sympathetic character. Plot had to be explained in the last chapter by the murderer because for the 200 or so pages before that, there were no clues or interesting events.Booorrrinngg. I bought it for 25 cents at a thrift shop because I really enjoy Barnes' Carlotta mysteries. |
