Another good mystery by H.R.F. Keating. Interesting to read about other countries and cultures. Mysteries are all around us. Small print, but easy reading.

This review is from: Inspector Ghote Draws A Line (Inspector Ghote Series) (Paperback)

I read a lot of European mysteries & thrillers, and enjoy them for their settings outside the US. I thought I'd try one of the Inspector Ghote stories since they take place in India. Well, there are some interesting details about India's customs, countryside, politics and history, but I thought the story line was awfully dull, and ended up fast-forwarding thru the pages to get to the end. Basically the story is somebody's threatening murder with little notes, and after 195 pages you find out who. The trip from page 1 to page 195 is a plodding affair. Bah. The character of Ghote didn't seem particularly interesting, either. Keating wrote a lot of Inspector Ghote stories, but I don't think I'll try another. Probably some are better than others.
