This review is from: The Case of the Borrowed Brunette (Paperback)
Perry Mason is always great and reliable.
What carries it is Gardner's love of people and sense of place. In this one, an unusual advert for a model leads to...guess what...a murder. There is a lovely description by an estranged wife of what is was like to be wooed by a powerful dynamic man. Later she wants out, but only realizes afterwards that all she had to do was talk about permanent fidelity etc, and he would have run. The well-characterized crew do their thing and it ends up in court, but this is not one of his best. Pages of explanation about unexpected happenings to guns and fingerprints get a bit tedious and the latitude allowed in court verges on the unbelievable before the inevitable surprise. Even so, a great read.
