shannon_aReading them back to back, I'm impressed by how much a better writer than her husband Marcia Muller is. In particular, I'm impressed by how much of a stronger impression of San Francisco she gives. This one has so much San Francisco color: Golden Gate Park (which I'd love to go bike around today), the Windmills there (which I remember from the Mother's Day before last), the San Francisco Flower Market (which I think I remember from Tales of the City, though perhaps I saw it somewhere else).
The mystery's also pretty good, and though I'm not convinced I had the clues to put it together myself, it fit in the end. And, much like her last book, I felt this one was full of characters, many of whom were living in unfortunate circumstances that you had to empathize with.
As you may have sussed out from recent posts, I'm taking a walk through all the mystery authors I'm currently reading. I've got the newest Spenser and Felix Castor books on hold too, though the library hasn't gotten their copies yet, and I'm also going to try out Robert Parker's YA book about Spenser, to see what I think
