CHARLIE CHAN TO THE RESCUE...,
By Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (COMMUNITY FORUM 04) (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: The House Without a Key [Charlie Chan # 1] (Mass Market Paperback)
With this book, the author introduced the hero of the Honolulu Police, Detective Charlie Chan, to the reading public. Charlie Chan is definitely one of my all time favorite detectives. When the violent murder of one of the richest men in Hawaii occurs at his beach front house in Waikiki, Charlie Chan is called in to solve the case.
My only criticism of the book is that Charlie Chan lays low throughout the book, while other characters rise to the forefront. Nonetheless, this is an entertaining little mystery that fans of Charlie Chan will enjoy. Since it was originally published in 1925 and redolent of a bygone era, the reader should keep in mind that there is a slightly anachronistic feel to the book, and it may not always be politically correct. |
