Nice to have this well formatted version of all three detective mysteries in Keeley's masterful "London Road Mysteries" series.The casebook of James Francis Dineen will remind you of Sherlock Holmes, and you may find, as I did, that the twists and turns of the plot and the contrasting styles of Dineen and his partner John Moreland are as gripping as Conan Doyle's tales of the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson.Dineen and Moreland's adventures are set in early 20th Century Manchester with the atmosphere of the period finely evoked and the life of the city convincingly portrayed, all of which adds to the pleasure of reading these books.
