Negative Positive
Title: A Disappointment
Review: I am a big fan of Ed McBain / Evan Hunter, expecially his 87th precinct books. They have set the standard for the police procedural framework. I have been luke warm towards his Matthew Hope works, feeling that there are lots of lawyers-as-detectives out there. This particular book I found slow developing and the plot was not that gripping. To be honest, I didn't finish the book, so maybe it picked up towards the end. I hope so.
Is the review positive or negative?
