A review by jdhobbes
A Dangerous Talent by Aaron Elkins, Charlotte Elkins

4.0

I started this book with low expectations, but I have to admit that it wasn't long before I was hooked. This is a fast-paced, highly engrossing, highly entertaining mystery. The Elkins duo manage to strike a balance which so often eludes mystery writers: a pleasant puzzle which, when solved, makes sense but doesn't leave the reader wanting to bang someone's head against the wall for being deliberately obtuse. And they still manage to throw some curveballs in there too, just enough to keep you on your toes without being totally outlandish.

I for one will be eagerly awaiting the next Alix London mystery!
