A review by rosieclaverton
The Singing Sands by Josephine Tey

3.0

I liked this book for its portrayal of depression and claustrophobia. I liked it less for the crowbarring in of the heteronormativity that had been largely absent prior to this. I enjoyed the queer coding of Alan Grant and this was a bit disappointing. Also the random shots of racism and disdain for Scottish nationalism.

Mystery was good though. And some sweetness about the missing man and his "friend".
