Review title: A much -appreciated, very strong effort
Product review: Infinitely superior to (for example) the "sequel" to "Gone With The Wind" but given Walsh's obvious abilities, I think it could have been even better. Most glaring flaw: the characters were far too direct and plainspoken. Helen would NEVER been as openly and bluntly rude to Harriet as she was in this novel, nor would Harriet have dealt with it so straightforwardly. But, as a true Lord Peter addict, I'm very grateful for the novel anyway, and wouldn't mind seeing another one.
