Ramsay demonstrates once again that he is a superb storyteller, adroitly mixing the spy and small-town mystery genres and shocking us with one walloping big surprise midway through the book. An excellent entry in this still-young but steadily improving series.

Seldom in crime fiction does one meet lead characters as likable as Smith and his long-lost friend/new love interest, Rosemary Mitchell. Both are "pushing seventy" but try to solve the various mysteries with the style, audacity and intelligence of a Sun City version of Nick and Nora Charles.

Artscape:
Ramsay spins a
masterful tale full of suspense of the nail biting variety. His characters, both male and female, are well drawn, and the portrait of small-town life realistic. This is a first novel, a very good read.
