Reviews

[Cameron Trost]

Elizabeth Ferrars' short suspense novel is an enjoyable 1950s mystery about an elderly woman who has gone missing... or has she? Throughout the book, the reader is constantly asked this very question and can't help but share the main character's uneasy sense that somebody (or maybe everybody) is intentionally misleading her. The story reads well and there is plenty of atmosphere throughout as the charcters travel around England. The conclusion suited the story but was fairly shallow - there was no truly gripping incident or startling revelation. All in all, not a bad little mystery if you just happen to come across an old copy somewhere but nothing very impressive and it won't be your piece of cake if you're a serious armchair detective who writes up psychological profiles of each character and analyses all the clues.
