Set in the 1930s this was an intricate story, with many characters coming in and going out
which could get confusing, if you tried to figure who was doing what.
A man goes missing, his suitcase and passport fiund in a derelict building, a very indifferent
wife who does not turn a hair when confronted with the gruesome details of her husbands
death, her lover who becomes the primary suspect, when the first suspect is found drowned.
It was an interesting story particularly for me as I like this era and settings. The detective
work was comprehensive and much slower than a modern story setting. it did not detract from
the story.
This was a purchase from Amazon.
It sounds like a delightfully complex story.
