4.0 out of 5 stars
Not the best Flaxborough book,
By Clarabelle Hoolihan (Sheboygan, WI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Charity Ends at Home (Paperback)
When compared with the entire body of Colin Watson's work, this title does not quite measure up. Despite that, it still contains Watson's trademark wit and some of the most memorable characters (almost Dickensian) in classic detective fiction. All of the Flaxborough favorites are here, including the inimitable Lucilla Teatime. I found myself laughing out loud throughout the book. The story's only flaw is the time it takes to get to the crime. Watson seems to like to pick apart small town society in his books, and his critical commentary is dead-on and hilarious, but he goes a little long in his caricatures here. Nevertheless the book remains a short fun read.
