Case Closed, Vol. 8 by Gosho Aoyama
3.0
Gosho Aoyama, Case Closed, vol. 8 (ViZ, 1994)
The conclusion of the mystery-girl case, after which we get the standard two stories. A mystery weekend getaway turns deadly, and a bride-to-be is poisoned. The series is starting to drag here, as if Aoyama were getting tired of it; the mysteries are getting closer and closer to the material on which (presumably) Aoyama is basing them. The poisoned bride story is a good one, but the series is definitely in a slump at this point. ***
