What do readers think of The World's Greatest Detective and Her Just Okay Assistant by Liza Tully? Write your own review.

This book is well written, the characters are quite likeable and the story line is good. It was a little light for me but for those looking for a break from heavy reading, this could be a perfect choice.

I am an avid reader of murder mysteries and thrillers. For me they are excellent escapes from everyday life and I love trying to solve the puzzle with the clues the given by the author. In this book, I found the main characters to be contrived and too similar to Stephen Spotwood's Lilian Pentecost and Will Parker. While well-plotted, the story didn't move along quickly enough for me.

That said, I think writing a book is a major accomplishment and I'm in awe of anyone who does it and gets it published. If you want a murder mystery that is gore-free, and minimal hooks and twists, this is a great book for you.
