A review by marilynsaul
The Risk Pool by Richard Russo

3.0

I needed a book to savor after reading Bear and his Daughter, followed by a book of short murder mysteries (all of which were mediocre and unsatisfying, despite the celebrity of many of its authors), and I chose the right book! Russo is a fabulous story teller and I shall soon recline and read, as is fitting for this Christmas day.
