A review by krisrid
Borrower of the Night by Elizabeth Peters
3.0
I picked this up because I adore Elizabeth Peter's other series about the Emerson family, and the character of Vicky Bliss sounded different, but still interesting enough for me to give her a try.
I enjoyed the book. Vicky, an American is just as spunky and unorthodox as Amelia but in a completely different flavour. Her rivalry with Tony, although certainly entertaining, doesn't have quite the same level of amusement and snap as the one between Amelia and Emerson.
Still, the story was fun, and the shenanigans that go on in the German manse where everyone is frantically, and in some cases murderously searching for a priceless piece of religious art are worth reading.
I will probably give another Vicky Bliss story a try, although Amelia and Emerson are still my favourites!!
