5.0 out of 5 stars Vastly entertaining!, August 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Dead Giveaway (Audio Cassette)
I discovered Charles Paris mysteries quite by accident, looking for a book on tape to occupy the time on a long drive. Brett's sparse writing style and expansive wit makes this book a wonderful read that I have come back to time and time again.

4.0 out of 5 stars True Charles Paris style!, June 23, 2007
This review is from: Dead Giveaway (Paperback)
If you like writing with a definite edge to the wit, as well as a wonderful little mystery, then do not miss Simon Brett. His Charles Paris books are not to be beat. He always gives an insider look at some aspect of the entertainment industry, and let me tell you he does not spare anyone! In this one we get a peak inside the world of television game shows when the host actually dies on the air. Charles, the fiftiesh sottish, failed actor is asked to help determine who actually killed the host, so he sets out with his incongruous team of television researchers to do just that. This is well-written, leisurely reading that will delight mystery buffs.
