A review by snowbenton
The Brothers of Baker Street by Michael Robertson

1.0

This was so bad it's legitimately hilarious. It feels like Robertson wanted to write a noir without ever having read one. One character in this modern, cell-phone-filled book, legitimately asks another character if you can change the font before printing something out. Another gaffe is when a character can't dial the emergency number from a locked phone; as far as I know, all phones can do that for safety reasons.

The mystery was outrageous and stupid; the denouement outrageous and disappointing.

This was the second in the series. I have not and will not read the first. Thankfully, since not one of these characters has the personality that god gave a square of singly ply toilet paper, I didn't feel like I missed anything.
