Summary of Newspaper Reviews of The Walker on the Cape

Here’s what the newspapers have been saying about The Walker on the Cape….

“The Walker on the Cape offers some foxily constructed plotting, a winning sleuth figure and an air of charming cheerfulness.”

The Toronto Star

“It¹s fun to read a mystery like this. The setting is nicely realized, the characters have some weight, and the details are telling, like the fog with a mind of its own.”

The Telegram

Writers try like Dickens to open their stories with a hook, some tasty bait to catch and hold the reader’s attention. Martin hooked me in the first paragraph with a description of Elias’ breakfast of, along with porridge, “thick molasses bread smothered in partridge berry jam.”

The Clarenville Packet

“The Walker on the Cape is worth picking up. It is a good read and Sergeant Windflower and Constable Eddie Tizzard are well drawn characters. It will be interesting to see how they and other characters develop in the next book.”

The Mystery Site

“Mike Martin has thought through his plot and provided a mixture of motives and suspects to keep it moving forward. And, he’s done his homework when it comes to RCMP procedure. He has a lot of room to grow his characters which should make the second book (I’m assuming and hoping it’s a series) well worth looking for.”
