Hand of Fate - review

This is the first of Michael Underwood's books that I have tried and I found it to be a very enjoyable read. It was exceptionally easy-going - perfect for bedtime reading. There were not too many characters introduced at once, and just enough background information was provided without unduly detracting from the main story. The supposed twist in the tale was predictable from a very early stage, but this did not spoil the form of the story, and an element of suspense did remain. I will certainly be reading other books by this author, and I would recommend him to anyone who enjoys vintage Agatha Christie, but is frustrated by not being given sufficient clues to solve her mysteries.
