    A novelette with a fairly simple plot patched together with corny dialogue that is a fun read.

    This book wasn't nearly as good as For Sale in Palm Beach. It's ok for the cost though. It has a lot of information that takes away from the story rather than adds to it such as giving the exact directions they're taking. It drove me crazy! Why would I need to know what street & direction was taken?! This books storyline wasn't as good and not as well written. It talked about cases that were solved that weren't in the first book. This book appeared to be the second in the series but there's no way for me to be certain. Basically, I just strolled in short portions through some sections of the book.

    I just finished reading all 5 of the Henry Wright Series. I found them to be very entertaining. I loved getting to know Henry and everyone in his life. I do hope there will be more Henry Wright books in the future.
  • O.K!!!!? Where's the next book? Have read all 5! Couldn't stop till finished the last one.

  • A good story line

    The author develops good story lines in each book, even when his writing skills range from a disgrace (book#1) to much improved (book #3.). I see a good future for him as an author of easy-to- read mysteries if he will but find someone with basic writing skills to show him the way . It needn't be an editor because such a person would throw up his/her hands in total rejection of the author and his works. A good language arts instructor or a creative writing instructor could give this author, who has potential, the guidance he needs. Without improvement, he's doomed to writing freebies or 99 cent mysteries.

    This is an interesting tale in a very current way ,revealing issues that are coming into Public consciousness . This exposure is by way of mystery story. The nature of the protagonists gives the reader interest while suggesting the need to resolve and redirect prevailing attitudes about Age and GLBT concerns. The problems are dealt with very gently but focus on the main story is maintained throughout. It is a comfortable read.
