The Sketching Detective (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Jack McCormac, author of The Sketching Detective, has a gift for telling an intriguing, intelligent, and humorous detective story. Jack McKay, the protagonist of The Sketching Detective, is imbued with the quirks of one of Agatha Christie's detectives while displaying the logic and deductive reasoning skills of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. As each twist and turn of the case in The Sketching Detective unfolds in front of Jack, he teases out the details, sometimes with his unlikely sketching talents or, more often than not, by sheer luck and a fair amount of charm. Without the prodding of his feisty and beautiful bride and partner in detection, Fiona, Jack would have left the detecting to the police department and the doubting police chief, Fat Joe. But Fiona knows that something sinister is afoot with the murder of their grouchy neighbor, Sam Campbell, and she is not about to let it rest, especially not when her own brother, Bob, is implicated as a serious suspect. After Jack and Fiona's entire, and usually quiet, neighborhood goes overboard looking for the murderer, the most unusual suspect emerges, to everyone's great surprise.
