Review
'Joyce Holms is a magician -- the reader is so busy laughing, the clues just slip by unnoticed.' Val McDermid

Product Description
Barrister Tam Buchanan is enjoying a rare, tranquil evening on the golf course. Poised gloriously on the brink of making the shot of his life, his concentration is abruptly shattered by the rude arrival of his exasperating former colleague, Fizz Fitzpatrick.She needs his help. An old friend of hers, Irene Lloyd, has disappeared along with a Rubens painting she had been working on, worth ??1.5 million.Fizz refuses to believe Irene is guilty of the theft, even if all the evidence points to the contrary. She and Buchanan investigate, and soon become enmeshed in a tangled web of intrigue. What exactly is going on at the stately but impoverished Abbeyfield House? Where had Irene??'s secret taxi journeys been taking her? Did her obsessive boyfriend have good reason for his jealousy?

4.0 out of 5 stars Superb crime stories, this author should be much better known, 28 Jul 2008
This review is from: Hidden Depths (Paperback)
Joyce Holms crime novels featuring two of the most interesting characters in modern crime fiction are a real pleasure to read. I am always on the look out for her next book.
The well drawn characters of Edinburgh lawyers, the unstoppable and volatile Fizz Fitzpatrick and the long-suffering Tam Buchanan who keeps her feet on the ground are always entertaining. The story unfolds with Fizz embroiling Buchanan in a search for her missing friend, who appears to have absconded with a priceless Rubens painting. They chase around the Lothian area outside Edinburgh, following up false leads while the reader is strung out on a tense lead behind them. Hidden Depths like the other Joyce Holms books is full of atmosphere and sense of place as well as understated humour. The byplay between Fizz and Buchanan (where neither of them are aware of the strong attraction existing between them) is one of the author's tours de force. Poor Buchanan is beginning to fight back against Fizz' subtle manipulation.
Joyce Holms' gentle humour is a far cry from the angst-ridden detectives created by Ian Rankin and Quintin Jardine.
Great escapism and clever plotting.
