Smashing!
7 Oct 2003
Format:Hardcover
It takes a really exceptional American writer to wean me away from my favourite English historical mysteries, but Nancy Pickard is such a smooth and accomplished writer that I can't resist her books. I just don't know what took me so long to find them.
It doesn't matter what aspect of mystery writing you consider, this writer can handle it flawlessly. She hooks in the reader effortlessly, her sense of place is awesome, and my pea brain doesn't get the characters muddled up, one with the other. The plot, the pacing, the motivation - it's all extremely well done.
In this story Jenny Cain moves to New York to fill in for her murdered friend Carol and there she finds a confused and confusing place, with characters to match. Her own personal battle - to stay there or return home to a quiet backwoods town - is the underlying counterpoint to the more immediate dangers she faces as she tries to discover how Carol met her death.
It's a book you won't want to put down.
