Review: An unfortunate introduction

Some of the narrative was quite nice.  Much of the dialogue, however, was stilted, lacking an easy flow.That could have been dismissed had the hero been heroic.  The heroine was dead, dying, or in great peril at the least, and he sat on his duff and waited for Bow Street to track her down.  Not my kind of hero.The "hero" issue is just a matter of personal preference, of course, and the dialogue will become more fluid with time.  The author definitely shows promise and I will be back.Note to editor:  Please.  It's "genteel," not "gentile."  A little jarring, that.
