Review: Detective crime mysteries
Rating: 4 out of 5

FIRST CASE - prequel novella - 3 stars(Estimated page count 77)Not the type of mystery where clues, different suspects and their possible  motives are given. It just tells the story of a detective's first case, where the perpetrator and motive are given to the reader in the last chapter. I still enjoyed it and thought it was a nice introduction to the characters.THE ST. PAUL CONSPIRACY - 4 stars(Estimated page count 340)What started out as a straightforward murder case turned into so much more. I thought the pacing was slow, but I never got bored. It was good.DEADLY STILLWATER  - 4 stars(Estimated page count 378)Another slow unraveling of the story.  Somehow, even with the slower pace, this author makes it work. None of the mysteries are the type where the reader tries to figure out the who done it. In this one, you know the who fairly early, just not the why. The stories are well thought out with nice endings.
