I wasn't real impressed with the description of the book but again...it met a challenge, so I thought I can stand less than 200 pages so lets go for it. I'm glad I did. It's not often that a writer can make the reader feel completely immersed in a story...David Handler can. The only complaint that I had was that he tried to hard to make Mitry into the idea of what a black woman is supposedly suppose to sound like and act like. She was more well bred that that and he didn't really do her justice. For the first book in the series...the author did very well and I will find the others soon. ( ) Cosa succede quanto un intellettuale new yorkese e un poliziotta in carriera s'incontrano ? Può succedere di tutto. Diverte, personaggi con un buon spessore umano, un ritratto intrigrante di una cittadina del New England dove nulla è come sembra. Funny, good psychological character construction. A pageturne I am not usually a cozy mystery fan. I like them hard-boiled to the extreme usually, and have little time for ¨The Cat who...¨ style mysteries, but David Handler´s characters are so real, biting, damaged and interesting and the setting (the blueblood Connecticut Gold Coast) is as much a character itself that I wasn´t all that bothered by the tea-and-crumpets trappings. I liked it very much even though the mystery wasn´t all that troubling geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML: Mitch Berger, a top film critic with a major New York newspaper at a surprisingly young age, has become almost a recluse since his wife died one year ago. He spends his time secluded in his apartment or in the dark recesses of a screening room. Although he continues to dazzle moviegoers and the film elite with his criticisms, his editor and good friend is alarmed about him. As a scheme to pull him out of the doldrums of his grief, she gives him a non-film assignment - to do a color story on the wealthy and social homeowners on Connecticut's Gold Coast. It takes some doing, but in the end Mitch agrees. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
