Review: Well written by Narendra as always.

My third Narendra Simone novel and while not quite what I was expecting or in my humble opinion, not quite as good as either of the previous novels read, Tuscan Dream is still worth reading and no doubt I will read it again in the near future and it may well grow on me the second time round.The writing, as usual, was excellent but my lack of appreciation in art perhaps distanced me somewhat from the point and characters. When the book was advertised with murder and mystery in the headline preview I did not think it would take so long to arrive at what I thought was the core of the story. Once the mystery element was exposed I found reading it far easier to the conclusion. I only wish the first half of the book had managed to equally grasp my attention.In conclusion, Tuscan Dream is well written but may not be easy to stay focused on for a fair chunk of it unless art holds a certain appeal for the reader.
