One Corpse Too Many by Ellis Peters

2.0

---

Perhaps two stars is a bit too harsh, but this one was not quite as interesting as the first book. The prose was occasionally clunky, it being difficult at times to tell which character was speaking or to whom referring. The need to rely on last minute fortuitous happenstance to resolve a mystery is always deserving of a demotion. Still, the story was enjoyable and I will likely read more in the series.
