I really like this author's writing but I think her talent may be wasted on novellas.  There is so much potential for a full, rich story that can't be told in 20,000 words.Accomplished in Detection reintroduces a character that had a brief and minor appearance in the previous novella, Accomplished in Murder.  His stay in this story is short and undeveloped as well.  I guessed the correct suspect early on, but only because it seemed the most likely.  One moment early in the story practically says so and you'd have to be skimming to miss it.  I never would have figured out the motive, however.  It was a fun read and I'm looking forward to the next one.There is a strange character that caught my interest and I really wanted to know more.  The murder-mystery is solved, but this other mystery is even more intriguing and was left nearly untouched at the end of the book.  The main character pretty well blows it off as "we may never know".  That was a disappointment.  I hope to see that mysterious character in a future story.
