    <body><![CDATA[This was a very pleasant, diverting murder mystery for what turned out to be a very long week.  Kozak has an insiders feel for the LA scene, soap dramas and a bit of the Illiad thrown in!  I've driven through the Mount Olympus area of the hills and many of the homes are very Grecian indeed.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a good mystery.  It's been such a long time since I read the last Wollie Shelley mystery that I can't remember if this was better or worse than the last, but I didn't guess the murderer, so that's always a good sign.  Good characterizations, interesting plot.  It's worth picking up.]]></body>
