The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher by Kate Summerscale

3.0

This book had a fascinating murder and compelling characters at its heart, but so much extraneous material! None of it was completely uninteresting, but all together the details veered in so many different directions that it was hard to keep track. I think maybe if it were tightened up a bit, it would read more like an actual mystery, and drive more successfully toward the ending.
