pikusonali 's review for:
The Eighth Detective
by Alex Pavesi
Rating: 3.5
Mysteries within a mystery!
Consider seven mystery stories bound by a set mathematical equation with multiple parameters. Set those stories within a broader mystery and you get 'The Eighth Detective'.
The concept is very interesting and the story setting is unique. Not only you end up exercising your brain cells while going through the different mysteries but also start wondering what larger picture is in play.
When the editor of a small publishing house meets with a reclusive author on a remote island, the two set out to edit and re-publish the writer's 30-year-old book – a short story collection – with an enigmatic title, that may or may not be related to the murder of a popular 1940s actress.
Fast-paced, entertaining, and enjoyable - all the makings of a good mystery book. Do try out.
