Thanks for the entertaining, straightforward review. I'm most excited over Exhibit 2 - I think it's cool how readers actually have at chance at solving the mystery.

This book sounds interesting. It's been a while since I read a great whodunnit. I like that readers get clues and can solve the case. I also like that there are good character interactions and light moments in the book that are mixed with the drama. Thanks for your review.

I'm not a huge fan of murder/crime mysteries, even of the Agatha Christie variety, but I do love expanding my vocabulary...

This book held my attention form the beginning and i was eager to see the resolution. The main detective and his assistant made a good team. I used to read a great deal of mysteries,but I haven’t read a good mystery in a while this book reignited my love for the genre. The author’s style remind me of agatha christie i read years ago. I wiil not describe the plot because I dont want to give away any of thr intrigue or mystery of the story. I look forward to reading the next mystery by this author .

Neat work! I have to say your review is very compelling. I instantly liked this book and certainly can look forward to read it. The idea of a detective stories entertaining me is somewhat new thanks to "The 11:05 Murders" which I heartily enjoyed. I will certainly read this book. Thank you for your excellent review!

Crime fiction has never been fiction to me though. The incidents described in the book must have occurred somewhere, sometime and with some other peoples. "Goodnight Irene" should be a good book to read.

The best thing about this book? It looks to have been professionally edited. And what adds to its value more? The fact that it's reminiscent of Agatha Christie at her best. I am definitely going to read this soon!

I love the unique format you used to review this book! It sets the tone nicely for the type of book that this seems to be. While I'm not a big fan of 'whodunnit' books, I am, nonetheless, interested in reading this one. I love a good book that I can easily become immersed in, and this book definitely seems like one where I'd be able to get lost in its pages. I also like the idea of there being some banter between two of the characters to lighten the mood in the story.
