3.0 out of 5 stars It seems all too possible, September 26, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Murder at the Watergate: A Novel (Hardcover)

Margaret Truman's Capital Crimes mysteries are always fun to read. With this one it is amazing how many current issues she squeezes into the plot: campaign spending, relations with Mexico, corrupt police and politicians, drug traffic and other crime, and even a vice-president friend who does not have firm footing. Mac and Annabel Smith do their stuff again. A good read. You care about the characters and are kept guessing until almost the end. Not her best, but very good.

3.0 out of 5 stars LOVE The Capital Crime Series!, October 12, 1999

This review is from: Murder at the Watergate (Capital Crime Mysteries) (Mass Market Paperback)

But this one wasn't as great as most of the others. I enjoyed the action and even found the opinionated descriptions of corruption in Mexico somewhat interesting and thought-provoking. But wish that this book didn't feel so rushed and that it had more heart. I was getting a "Lawrence Sanders" kind of feeling (whose books I also enjoy, but in a different way).

This review is from: Murder at the Watergate (Capital Crime Mysteries) (Mass Market Paperback)

Margaret Truman is a very talented writter. She describes things down to the smallest detail. She does employ too many characters however and sometimes one gets lost in the plot trying to remember which character she is writing about. I do however like the fact that she keeps some characters constant, like the Smiths. In this book,however, she casually glosses over the killing off of a large number of characters that she has gone into detail to describe. In one instance, she doesn't even describe the murder. It was just referred to as, Oh yes, he is dead too. Still love the whole series, and will continue to read them.
