Critic comment
2014 I find the first story, A Local Murder, to be rather a good read.
This is a partially revised edition, and was matched with the original. I find it reads much better. The characters are well-distinguished and consist of types we all know.
A woman crashes a New Year Party, then is found murdered.. It eventuates that she was a famous artist who painted male nudes. The question is; was one of her models the killer?
Moulton has stated that the solution was stated near the beginning of the book, and that was true. I did not spot it.
Actually, quite good. ****
Don't Push was more or less standard fare. While it was readable, it was a bit too ordinary for my personal tastes. ***
