Title: reads like Grimes wrote this early in her career
Review: These books are such disappointments (Belle Ruin, Hotel Paradise & Cold Flat Junction) if you are a true fan of the Richard Jury series like me. Frankly, I think these books read like work Grimes might have written early in her writing career before she developed her flawless style used in the Jury novels. These novels are hard to follow and not particularly interesting. The only thing I can deduce from them is that Grimes became famous after writing the Richard Jury novels, and the publishers agreed to publish these early works that must have been sitting on Grimes' bookshelf for years. Her attempt to write in a young girl's voice is good at times, but artificial and forced at others. The whole concept reads like an inexperienced writer-not the Martha Grimes of the Richard Jury fame. At times, I wondered if they were written by 2 different authors.
