MOST ENTERTAINING. WODEHOUSE STYLE HUMOUR WITH GREAT MYSTERY

THIS IS THE FIFTH OF THE SERIES. I HAVE ENJOYED THEM ALL. THESE ARE NOT FOR THE STUFFY WORSHIPER OF SHERLOCK HOLMES. NOT PASTICHES OR PARODIES OF ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE, TROW'S "LESTRADE"MYSTERIES STAND ON THEIR OWN AS WORKS OF THE MYSTERY WRITER'S ART, COMBINED WITH GREAT HUMOUR, PUNS AND "DOUBLE ENTENDRES." ONE OF THOSE BOOKS THAT MAKE YOU FEEL SAD WHEN IT IS FINISHED. LOOKING FORWARD TO MORE!
