Reviewer: mikezane - 4/2/2009 15:36 Subject: Good Book Book starts a bit slow, but picks up and gets very exciting, so stick it out through the slow start. What would an elderly lady rather do on vacation? Sunbathe or solve a murder? Enter a fiesty spinster who decides the latter when a man is found murdered in her summer rental. The house has the reputation of being haunted, but she isn't convinced and sets about determining the REAL mystery behind the Circular Staircase. Reading is fine, no complaints. :−)
