Robert M. (shotokanchef) reviewed on 3/31/2014 + 813 more book reviews

Absolutely boring! It takes over 100 pages just to discover the murder. Meanwhile the reader is treated to the mind-numbing details of chimney sweeping and chimney pots. Anyway, all's well that ends (finally). A saving grace is the old Lord Peter penchant for a good bon mot and the quoting of poetry between Lord Peter and Inspector Kirk as they attempt to outdo one another. Bunter continues to be the interminable "Jeeves". Neither one of her better murder mechanics nor better novels.
