Evaluation Of Books The Grave Tattoo
One of the best books I have read recently and very well written, I will now have no qualms at reading any of the books by this author.

Goodbye, Dr Gresham. I dont expect well meet again, he said. He sounded so much like a Bond villain that the spell broke. Jane grinned. You never know, she said.

Sounded good really wasn't that great. Read it until the end (do not really know how). Was one of these books that was stilted and did not really go with the flow. Felt rushed in places. The end bit was the best with a twist.
