Title: A Good Idea Wasted
Review: What could have been an amusing take-off on the Jackson-Braun mysteries never rises above the level of strained scatological humor that sounds as if it were written by an impossibly well-read seventh-grader. The occasional flashes of genuine wit are so mired in excretia and effluvia as to lose their sparkle. This reviewer wanted to give the book a chance, given the intriguing premise, but soon realized that the author had (in an unfortunate imitation of Samuel Johnson) begun as he meant to go on. What was probably a funny riff before friends and after a few drinks, glasses raised and standards lowered, does not succeed on the sober page. This reviewer hesitates to comment on a book not read to the end, but life is too short and time too precious. My only regret is not that I didn't finish the book, but that someone else didn't write it.
