Action for Slander |
This author is certainly out of fashion yet here is a surprisingly fascinating and riveting read. Murder there is but of a reputation, not a person which in this case is much the same thing. With its unflagging pace, the reader is enthralled by the twists and turns, red herrings and deviations until the last, astringently moralistic remarks of the presiding judge. Seeming a light read but based on a forceful social and moral commentary on human behaviour.
