Review: Needed to be longer to develop characters and story line  and build suspense
Rating: 2 out of 5

All the main ingredients were presence: suspects with reasons to dislike murdered woman, another murder discovered and murderer caught not long before this, setting the mystery after the war making it a period piece, language appropriate to the time period, police working with a civilian to get correct answers, etc.  For me it was too condensed with not enough time to build up the suspense and giving so many clues all at once. There was a beginning, center, and a good ending.  Some readers might enjoy this short version of a mystery, some may not. It's just personal opinion.Theila
