Review: Read about Mr. Grey with Your Earl Grey
Rating: 4 out of 5

Suspense novels set in modern times are filled to the brim with gadgetry and advanced technology. These stories (AND innovations) are impressive, yes, but sometimes, you just need to read a novel from the past, when suspense novel protagonists were sly, smart, and truly brilliant. That is what you will get with "Begin, Murderer." This Desmond Cory novel does not have funny Johnny Fedora but it's still a treasure with an equally interesting main character, Lindsey Grey. This novel offers you murder, scary people, and a glimpse into 1950s England via beautiful words and excellent writing. Read up with  your afternoon tea!
