3.0 out of 5 stars
Local color, a secret, and the rescue of a child.,
By M, Compulsive Reader (Santa Cruz, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Murder in Mendocino (Paperback)
Fun account of a woman writer researching a local legend in North-coast California. There's a closely-guarded secret, a Jeckyl/Hyde pioneer physician, finely-drawn village characters, an appealing child, her own common-sense courage. Unfortunately, other books in the series move to the East Coast, and the second jumps several years from the close of this one. (Maybe the author could do one on the in-between time.)
3.0 out of 5 stars
Little Murder in a Small Town,
By
This review is from: Murder in Mendocino (Paperback)
Charlotte Kent doesn't have a lot going on in her life to produce an income to support her desire to write full time. Her agent is driving her to write another "how to do it" home repair book as he has a contract from Home Digest, but Charlotte wants to write a historical biography on the life of a local personage, Dr. Stanley Hardwicke.
Charlotte is shocked when she learns a student of her's is working on the same project with a contract from a publisher that she has spent six months researching. When Rena Blount is murdered Charlotte has several problems on her hands including proving herself innocent of the crime. Murder in Mendocino is a fun light read to take to the dentist office. Nash Black, author of SINS OF THE FATHERS. |
