Oh boy.

This is a decent mystery/police procedural written in 1934 by Basil Thomson, who was quite a character in his own right.

The third book in the Inspector Richardson series concerns Naomi Clynes, who is found dead in her apartment. The inspector, who is rising very rapidly in the ranks because of his dedication, willingness to follow up every lead closely, and a certain flair or intuition, isn’t satisfied with the initial belief that Miss Clynes had committed suicide. The plot flows nicely, there’s a tiny bit of humor, and some pleasant characterization.

The problem with book is repeated, casual, mild but extremely annoying, antisemitism. I considered not finishing the book but did go on to the end.

Be warned, and adjust yourself accordingly. (
