grimendale 's review for:

A Test of Wills by Charles Todd

5.0

---

I picked this one up because the premise and the period were intriguing; the immediate aftermath of The Great War isn't often explored. I stayed up until 2am last night, racing along with Rutledge to finally resolve the mystery. The story is tight, the characters are interesting, and the clues keep you guessing all the way to the end. If you like hard-boiled detective novels, this is for you.
