Title: Weak mystery and a so-so political novel.
Review: It is indeed unfortunate that Gov. Weld has already quit his day job. I doubt that his future lies in writing novels.There was never much doubt about who the murderer was, just as there was little doubt about the outcome of the political races.While I have visited Boston several times, I don't feel qualified to comment on the political stereotypes in the novel past the point of saying that if true, Boston is still in the 19th century. If the novel is accurate about politics in Massachusetts, I cannot see how Gov. Weld was ever elected.
