A Pot Thief Murder Mystery
review 1: This third Pot Thief book is great fun, but really doesn't live up to his first two books. The interactions between Hubert ---the pot thief--and his younger friend, Susannah, are like a Burns & Allen classic TV show----well worth the read alone. Both discuss each other's prospective dates, connecting them to various old movies they have seen. I also continue to appreciate the new vocabulary words, , and other tidbits of information that Orenduff throws into his mysteries.In this book, Hubert is taken blindfolded to appraise a set of ancient pots. After he returns home, he finds that his appraisal money is no longer in his pocket. As he seeks to find the home he was in, he gets caught up in a murder. Never one to avoid trouble when he's determined to accomplish his goa... morels, Hubert seeks to find this unknown place again, even going to far as to break in and hot wire the homeowner's car. Problems develop when the homeowner's body is found and the police arrest Hubert for murder.Fun, intelligent read, with an interesting mystery. Each pot thief book is connected to someone. This one gets into Einstein's particle theories. Orenduff does a great job of mixing knowledge with fun!!
review 2: Our intrepid sleuth, Hubie is once again immersed in a murder mystery, this time involving pottery appraisals. Soon, we find ourselves in the midst of confusing identities and mysterious women. What will Hubie do? For one thing gather with Susannah at Dos Hermanas and figure this mess out with the aid of margaritas and chips with salsa!If you enjoy solid mysteries filled with humor and the classics, treat yourself to this masterful novel. less
