" Harriet Martens is is a likable detective who becomes involved in solving the case of her own near-fatal poisoning. This is a whodunit by a prolific author and there are a number of others in the series. A "safe" read for lovers of Agatha Christie type mysteries. "
" Only OK. I found the prose rather annoying and the attempts at stream-of-consciousness made me really dislike the main character. "
" I've never read anything in the Harriet Martens series. Now that I've finished this one, I'm pretty sure I won't be reading anything else in the series. Too many red herrings. I prefer the Inspector Ghote series. "
" Nice writing, not a very compelling mystery. "
" good read. Kept me on my toes "
