John Cardinal and Lise Delorme Mystery

review 1: It is getting harder and harder to track down books by Giles Blunt. I guess he is just published in Canada now and not in the US. Too bad, because his series set in northern Canada is filled with interesting characters and his mysteries are both interesting and intelligent. This book was a tough read for me because he spends a good bit of time with the crazy 'family' of people responsible for the crime. Tough to read those sections because of how disturbing the group is. But I always enjoy spending time with John Cardinal and Lise Delorme.
review 2: I enjoy these books, partly because they're set close to where I grew up, but have I told you how much I hate coincidences in crime novels? Aargh! If you don't mind that the fates bring together two events in ... moresuch a way as to provide the the clue that solves the crime, instead of it just being good police work, this is a great story. If that ruins it for you, three stars might have been generous. less
