A review by sardine164
The Prodigal Son by Colleen McCullough

1.0

For me, this was unconvincing. The characters were inconsistent, and there was a lot of dialog between characters, particularly the detectives' discussions, to move the story along. (I felt that the detectives made rather a lot of assumptions, with no proper evidence.) Other reviews have mentioned about the racism; I also felt uncomfortable about the depiction of the characters.

So, not really my cup of tea. That said, it is a light, easy-reading whodunnit with a bit of a twist.
