These mysteries were originally published back between the early 40's and the early 50's. As such, they contain language and slang of the time. This made them even more of a hoot than they otherwise would have been.
Most of the stories here are light in nature, other than the title tale and one other SEE NO MURDER.
I didn't have a chance at solving any of these crimes, but I still had a great time reading these mysteries, especially THE FREAK SHOW MURDERS. (This tale came with a little glossary of carney-speak that made me giggle a bit, especially the description of "cooch" and the "cooch dance".) Brown knows how to plot a good mystery while still keeping his quirky sense of humor and bits of dialogue.
Thank you to my friend over at Booklikes, Tigus, for the gift he sent me a while back, which included this book. I really enjoyed it and I like looking at the cover too. I appreciate it, good sir! ( )
