5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book with action all the way through !!!, May 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Smoke Detector: An Inspector Charlie Salter Novel (Hardcover)

The major conflict of the story happens around the homicide but with minor problems happening to Charlie and his family life a long the way a really good action with the murder being solved in one day but not before going through the long task of goin through suspects. The whole novel takes place over about a month with a lot of action to keep you interested in the plot summary. Character are fun and interesting but most of all Mr. Wright right the novel in such away that you become part of the story as Charlie partner in the solving of the murder. Really easy reading book full of action and little things to shake you head at; over all life experiance.

4.0 out of 5 stars Salter series low key greatness, August 8, 1995

By A Customer

This review is from: Smoke Detector: An Inspector Charlie Salter Novel (Hardcover)

All the Charlie Salter books by Eric Wright are readable,entertaining, well observed, and have solid mysteriesunderpinning the plots. Somewhere between police procedural and cosy, Charlie's family provides the basis for the continuing sub plots from book to book. There isn't a bad one in the series.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little slow but good setting and plot focus, April 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Smoke Detector: An Inspector Charlie Salter Novel (Hardcover)

This is a real good book with the action picking up through out the novel. Plenty of thought went behind this book and should veiwed by other writers as a back bone for novel write; it show the rising climax very clearly with little messages in each chapter.
