Deadly arson,
By
This review is from: Ransom Town (Paperback)
This is a strange, dry little mystery where the reader never seems to get to know the main character, Detective Inspector Fusil of Fortrow CID. After an obvious case of arson, the CID recieve what is literally a ransom note, demanding money and threatening more arson if the demands are not met. While the Police and Fire Department heads are dickering about whether or not the threat is genuine and just which department will have to pay, another fire is lit, this time taking the life of a small boy. A note is recieved demanding four million pounds and saying that the price would double each time a demand was ignored. DI Fusil is constantly at loggerheads with his superior officer (why do ALL of the "superior officers" in detective fiction seem to be such dills?) over methods and whether or not to go exactly by the book. The crime is solved but so abruptly that I still don't know who was the mastermind as it's not mentioned!
