Review: Witty Noir Murder Mystery
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 20, 2013
When the description said trash-talking and loudmouth detective I thought I knew what I was in for when reading Weekend in Weighton.  I underestimated the book description.  No matter the situation, Eddie G. was always snappy with a comeback or retort and could talk his way out of pretty much anything.  There were quite a few points where I was laughing out loud at the way be spoke with people who were threatening to kill him, throw him in prison, or even just date him.  This was a wonderful noir set in a quirky small town with a crime boss and a whodunit murder afoot.  The storyline kept readers on edge and guessing right up to the end.  While Eddie’s outer confidence in clearing his name of murder never wavered, my guess as to who the killer was, continuously changed.  A worthwhile read for anyone who enjoys a bit of tongue in cheek humor and a solid murder mystery.*I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my review*
