talisker 's review for:

The Grey Wolf by Louise Penny
3.0
medium-paced

Enjoyable in a way but disjointed and over the top. While the risk of domestic terrorism cannot be dismissed out of hand, plot elements and clues never fully come together. The book strains under the weight of far-fetched conspiracies and one-dimensional villains.  I would have much preferred a more human-scaled mystery that maintained the charm of the series.
