Charm City Mystery Keeps You Guessing
Found Laura Lippman's latest mystery engrossing and finished it in one rainy fall afternoon! Ms. Lippman succeeds in her approach to provide a modern twist on "Rear Window" placing Tess Monaghan, private investigator, in the Jimmy Stewart role; obsessed with solving a "crime" they've witnessed while being confined to their home. The mystery at the center of the novel unfolds at a nice pace and the reader is treated to a number of pleasant scenarios of those assisting Tess in her investigation. I'm an avid reader of mysteries and this one kept me guessing until the very end. I am going out now to purchase her first Tess Monaghan novel, "Baltimore Blues". Enjoy!
