A truly Delightful Literate Mystery
Rating:
5 / 5
For those readers who enjoy a well-written story with a wry humour and an intricate plot, they cannot go wrong with Catherine Aird. Her Sloan/Crosby series is truly delightful. She uses wry humour, tongue-in-cheek and puns like an expert, but the plot and story do not suffer from this. Her plots are complex and she enters into all kinds of fields. In this book an elderly lady passes away from what seem to be natural causes, but the preparations she has made in the event of her death are so complex, that it alerts Sloan and his team that there is something more to this. Before he's done figuring out the mystery, he's had to probe into history from the Second World War. The story is told with elegance and style, and is as sharp as tacks. Catherine Aird knows how to write a mystery.
