Review: A luscious short story (but not really a mystery)
Rating: 5 out of 5

This rich (meaning bursting with "flavor") short story is not much of a mystery. It has no surprise endings such as E A Poe's short mysteries featured, but gives us a tribute to his city, Baltimore. It is filled with musings on many topics:  modern motherhood and fatherhood, the difficulties of shopping with toddlers, brothers caring for brothers, people with bi-polar disorders or extreme OCD, reading printed books versus ebooks, vanishing newspapers and...well, I could go on and on.  It left this reader with so much think about in her own life (as well as a burning desire to visit Baltimore).
