Yes it was an enjoyable read, I’ve read also one other. The plot is sometimes hard to believe and it’s a shame he violently killed one of the more attractive/sympathetic characters in the book (although presumably that was the point) Also the policemen initially investigating Tankervilles murder must be a bit shorted sighted to mistake medieval garb for a woman’s wig and dress! There is a difference!Peregrinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-11627122744424708832022-09-30T13:53:02.090+01:002022-09-30T13:53:02.090+01:00I've read all five of these Dave Cannon books....I've read all five of these Dave Cannon books.

As a former bookdealer myself, I've always enjoyed reading crime novels set in this trade. A couple of other random ones I have enjoyed are Charlie Lovett's 'The Bookman's Tale' and Roy Harley Lewis's 'A Cracking of Spines'. (Cautionary note to authors to check their Amazon listings - 'The Bookman's Tale' is currently advertised as being by a Chalie [sic] Lovett, so if you search by author name only you might not find it!).
