I've become quite fond of the characters in this series and Argyll personality is front and center in this book. The plot is good, Flavia gets a starring role, and the boss even leaves the office for some actual field work. As a bonus, the author gets to rant about British weather and rails.

Another in the Art History mystery series by Mr. Pears. I like the series and the style, but this one just didn't hold my interest. It may not have been the fault of the novel itself, as the plot was fairly interesting and the characters well done. I think I will take a break from the series for a while.

An entertaining book. I would read more of this series if I came across any. The language was a bit too flowery at times and even with all the red herrings, I had figured out who had done it quite early in the book. Nonetheless, the characters were interesting and humorous enough to keep reading.
