A Blunt Instrument by Georgette Heyer

2.0

I adore Georgette Heyer's works, although this one fell a tad short in the mystery department in my opinion. The characters were a bit recognizable from other Heyer books: a clueless, chattering older woman, the smart, acerbic younger woman, the flighty, beautiful, extravagant woman, the younger man who startlingly does not conform to societal expectations, and the familiar police representatives Hemingway and Hannasyde.

Overall a fun read, but not one of my favorite Heyer Mysteries. That might be because I have read many of her other mysteries, and I am detecting a little bit of repetition. But, it is still a Heyer!
