Commentary/review

I requested Gemini to give me a Golden Age crime story and this is what I got. The story is interesting, the pace relaxed, the style gentle, the dialogues endearing. I had a lot of fun and could not put this one down.

The only downside is that there is not much more for an adult reader from the famous creator of Winnie the Pooh.

This Simon Hester performance is probably one of the best available.

The cover is bad, really lazy work.
