COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Not As Good As George's Previous Books submitted by sdunav on July 16, 2023, 1:02pm OK, I was disappointed in this because I really loved a lot of Elizabeth George's earlier mysteries. And I just didn't *like* a lot of the main characters (especially China & Cherokee River, the suspects).

Also -- there were only a few minor mentions of Thomas Lynley, NO mention at all of Barbara Havers -- my favorite character! What is happening with her life?!!!!

Instead, Simon St. James & wife Deborah do the investigation. China was a college friend of Deborah's when she spent 3 years in California, now she is in prison on the Isle of Guernsey (in the English Channel), suspected of murdering an older man who was building a WWII museum there. There is lots of interesting history, good writing, some surprises, but I just didn't -- couldn't -- get into this the way I have most of George's earlier books. In fact, it was rather plodding at parts.
