5.0 out of 5 stars The Best DM Book So Far! 13 Aug 2005
By RM Brown VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Having read all of Lee's other Diagnosis Murder books, I have to say that this one is my favourite. It gives a unique insight into the past of the Sloan family and gives the charactors something many books miss out on, a history.

I was hooked from beginning to end and the style of writing the past in first person was brilliant.

Recommend to any Diagnosis Murder fan

5.0 out of 5 stars Mark is Haunted by His First Case 4 Oct 2005
By Mark Baker TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Mass Market Paperback
In the middle of a Southern CA rain storm, Mark Sloan finds a dead college student on the beach near his house. With hair died red and dressed in a mermaid costume, things seem weird. A vile is found inside her that contains pictures from Mark Sloan's very first case.

In February 1962, during another huge rain storm, a dead woman is brought into the ER. Everyone assumes she drowned during the rain storm, but Mark thinks something fishy is going on. When they find evidence of murder, Mark just can't let it go, even when it puts him at odds with the detective, former friend Harry Trumble. Can an inexperienced doctor solve the crime? Even more intriguing, what does this 40+ year old murder case have to do with the present murder?

This book is ingenious. About half of it is set in the past and half set in the present. Really, you get two mysteries for the price of one as we watch Mark solve both cases. Yet they interact in a way I never saw coming. Seeing glimpses of Mark's past was enlightening as well. I really felt like I was back in 1962 for those scenes. Once again, Lee brings events from the series into the book making me wish I'd seen more of the earlier episodes.

These books are fast becoming one of my favorite series around. If you were a fan of the show, you owe it to yourself to pick up this great continuation. Even if you've never seen the series, the plots will pull you in and make you start looking for the reruns. Is the next one out yet?

5.0 out of 5 stars The Past Tense 14 April 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I very much enjoy the Diagnosis Murder series on BBC television every afternoon at 2.15p.m. each week day. I have watched nearly all of the episodes and I have become very familiar with the characters so I have wanted to get a chance to read some of the books about Diagnosis Murder which are on sale through Amazon. This is one such book and it is a good read giving more insight to the characterisation.
