Review: Murder on the Menu
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 03 30, 2014
I nearly put the novel back on my Kindle shelf a few times for several reasons, one of which was that I was certain both detectives would drop dead of massive coronaries before they solved the murders. Seriously, their fixation on food and the Blue Moon Diner was overemphasized and their menu choices enough to stop the heart of a healthy man. How they were able to climb 52 steps after a meal is a mystery in itself. At times it seemed I was reading an episode of Laurel and Hardy but without the laughter. And, I found the story overly repetitious.All of that being said, the story was interesting, some things not quite believable or ultimately explained and the ending was unexpected. Give it a shot.
