The Busy Body was not as I expected. It felt a bit like someone tried to turn a Jessica Fletcher mystery into a noir, but didn't quite pull it off. I never connected with, or liked, the unnamed narrator, 100% because we know next to nothing about them. They might as well have been a reader-insert. I didn't particularly like Dorothy, either.
