A review by letab
I Am the Only Running Footman by Martha Grimes

2.0

It had moments of humor and character development, but the murder plot was a bit convoluted for me and hard to follow. I could've forgiven that had the ending tied things up in a neat bow but sadly it was just as convoluted as the rest of the story. The ending was so abrupt I checked to make sure my used copy wasn't simply missing pages! This was the first Martha Grimes novel I tried so I'm not going to write off the whole series. Perhaps this particular book was the victim of an unyielding deadline!
