When the local constabulary arrive at Dorothy's place to investigate a shocking case of hoarding, you expect to find rubbish.  Lots of rubbish.  Dorothy is an interesting character, and so too is John, even if he is a little bit flawed in the public protocol sense.Mr Block's writing is crisp and clear but for me the story lacked his usual flair, or "punch" if you will,  of his standard range of world class and brilliant detective stories.  If only Keller the assassin had been called to work this job instead of the local police ... now HE would have had something to say!And so i give this story four stars out of five.  It was original, certainly, but I could smell the ending a mile away.BFN Greggorio!
