Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly
Adroitly meshing the worlds of commerce and art, this complex mystery calls for husband-and-wife investigators Charlie Meiklejohn and Constance Leidl to muster all their maturity, shrewdness and intuition. In a party at her Maryland farmhouse, their old friend Marion ("Tootles") Olson celebrates the launch of her art tour and the imminent opening of her second husband Max Buell's condominiums, built just a brisk walk from the house. But the evening turns tragic. Tootle's sculptures are vandalized and the strangled body of a guest, highly regarded art magazine editor Victoria Leeds, is discovered in one of Max's condominiums. Charlie and Constance interview several of the partygoers and learn that an earlier death at the condo site, first seen as an accident, is linked to Victoria's murder. John Buell, Tootles's chronically sullen stepson and his partner in the condo construction business, might be implicated. While Wilhelm ( And the Angels Sing ) deftly leads her clever sleuths through an intricate plot, a heavy dose of the occult muddies the waters, and many skimpily developed characters refuse to come to life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Any Kate Wilhelm mystery is worth a read, December 30, 2006
While this may not be the strongest of Kate Wilhelm's mysteries, it is still worth a read. I have read just about every mystery that this author has written. The sad part is that there are several books that she has written that are out of print, so you will have to go to other sites to find them used, or on auction.

This author has written sci-fi and mysteries for a good many years and I find her mysteries to be my favorites. If you like some of the newer female mystery writers you should give Kate Wilhelm a try. She is a local Oregon writer, so most of her works are centered in Oregon (Eugene in particular). Her Barbara Holloway series is quite good, but I also have to recommend Skeletons. It is one of my favorites. I really enjoy the Constance and Charlie series too. Too bad she doesn't write about them anymore.

You can usually find her books in a used bookstore, or online, and they are worth reading. If you enjoy local mystery writers, give her books a try.
