More sprawling than her usual fare—quite vague, but with flashes of brilliance, and overall very suggestive. Very interesting what she chose to focus on and managed to execute well (characterization) while her acuity and usual organization was declining.

I very much enjoy A.C. mysteries—until this one. The premise was good, the style & characters were good…. I just kept waiting for more to happen. And in the end, we were left with a handed-down partial answer. I almost question if she wrote this or didn’t quite finish?

I had never heard of these characters. I like them. And I like the code in the book! Not one of the best mysteries, but good.
