Customer Reviews

A Little Strange and a little Light but overall charming

I think this was the most charming murder mystery I have had cross my bedside table for weeks. Sure there are some plot dilemmas that are not quite cleared up and I am never quite clear which one is Pharoah's boyfriend this time. But it got wrapped up in the end alright and I liked it. Some books I read and forget - but this one I think I will remember, because the author writes uniquely.
