Review title: McCall is no Maupin
Product review: First, I am a faithful reader of McCall's No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series. So, I bought this book after reading that McCall serialized this novel in the style of Maupin's "Tales of the City." ["Tales of the City" is filled with lively, colourful characters -- one of which is the city of San Francisco -- a truly delightful book.]Edinburgh is another such place, a fantastic city filled with interesting people. I'm sorry to say that not one of these characters made it into "44 Scotland Street." If one were to judge Edinburgh and the people therein by this book, you'd believe the city were filled with mundane folks.I didn't hate the book but I couldn't recommend that anyone waste their time reading it, either.
