Not my favorite Daisy Dalrymple mystery. Daisy is off on her own in New York while Alec is meeting with officials in Washington, D.C. I missed the interaction between Alec and Daisy. The mystery wasn't as compelling and I felt like it was too drawn out. Hoping the next book will be better.

2.5 stars rounded up. This was definitely not one of the better books in the series. The American characters were cartoonish and stereotypical, and the whole scenario was rather unrealistic.

A mostly boring mystery that was saved by the cross-country airplane chase. The murder isn't very exciting or interesting, nor is the solution, and it takes far too long for Detective Fletcher to get involved.
