This seems like a Poirot Parody, and not a very good one. You get no sense, other than annoyance, of the character’s personalities. And the mystery plot is as clear as mud. I will not be reading anymore of this series.

Hard to read

Whatever the reason Mr. Rice decided to make his main character (Bunting) to be like Hercules Poirot did nothing for his story.
The dialogue from Bunting is annoying to say the least. I'm sure it was all supposed to be amusing but it was anything but.
I personally do not recommend this book!

Enjoyable


Very enjoyable and quick read. Was not sure about how the detective spoke at first, but kind of got used to it. 😸

Disappointing

This book is hard to read because of the shifts in languages. The plot rambles and does not flow. Characters are not developed.

This quick, entertaining muder mystery follows a brilliant detective Gerald Bunting as he solve an interesting, complex case. It was fun and was able to enjoy the mystery and story.

An odd, odd book, but quite enjoyable.
