Customer Reviews

Witty, original novel

I purchased all three novels of Mr. Sanders few years ago. At last I read the first one, "Death in the Dordogne". It was a very nice surprise. Short, both suspensfull and witty, original novel. There are no bags of old tricks in this book. The puzzle is convoluted, the characters and atmosphere sharply drawn. I have no intention of visiting Dordogne in February. The leading character, the sleuth, is a total unknown to us. We know that he is an Englishman, an amateur painter and that sums it all up. Everything else is left to our imagination. Buying unknown authors sometimes pays off. If you want something different than the average mystery, Mr. Sanders is your man.
