Review: Well Plotted

This installment of the Julie O'Hara mystery series is engaging engaging tale involving murder masked as suicide. Working mostly in tandem with her landlord/lover Joe, a private investigator, Julie painstakingly sifts through the obvious and hidden clues and motivations to event catch the killer. The book is well written and edited, unusually so for an e-book these days. I have only two problems: the characters frequently speak in italics, an annoying device that assumes the reader lacks comprehension; and the protagonist Julie seems cold and one dimensional. I nevertheless recommend the book, and the series, to lovers of mysteries with a touch of romance.
