Book Review of Venus in Copper (Marcus Didius Falco, Bk 3)

Venus in Copper (Marcus Didius Falco, Bk 3)

Of the first four or five books in the Falco series, this is perhaps the one I liked least. Perhaps because all the secondary characters, whether suspects or victims were not very nice characters. However, the plot was masterly. Like a vintage Agatha Christie, all the clues were there to see, cleverly disguised. The ending has an unexpected twist to the usual "criminal brought to justice" theme. I will probably read it again sometime.
