Somehow, I couldn't stop.

This is a wonderful mystery novel. It reeks of Agatha Christy and such praise is not issued lightly. As with all mystery novels, the finale, the climax, is really not the point. It's about the journey. The subtle details and fiendish second guessing that gets our blood boiling. You get precisely that from Ware.

Written with superb flow, excellent characters, and deeply evocative language, I give a full five stars.
