5.0 out of 5 stars Outlandish, but thoroughly entertaining, 9 Jan 2004
By M. V. Clarke (Durham, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Michael Dibdin may be classed as something of a virtuoso author of crime novels, with books ranging from the dark Aurelio Zen series to the very thought provoking 'The Tryst' and the nasty humour of 'Dirty Tricks.' This books is completely different to anything else he's written, and is a most enjoyable read. Set in a gruesome residential home for the elderly, Dibdin unfolds a pastiche of the Agatha Christie genre of crime novels, in which Rosemary and Dorothy play detective. However, in a characteristically Dibdin manner, there's something much more sinister underlying this story, and horrendous cruelties and degradations are exposed, having been brought to attention by the central storyline.

This is a very brief book, I read it in a few hours, but extremely good. Warmly recommended.
