Shelves: 2024

I love the gentle, deadpan humour in Osman's books & the sangfroid with which his characters greet the most frightening & bizarre of circumstances. Rosie D'Antonio is a delightful old broad, tough, resilient & fun, & Steve Wheeler is so laid back he's almost horizontal, must be all those years in the police force that have made him immune to any of the vagaries of human nature.

Though it was a lot of fun, We Solve Murders was hampered by too many character names and too many twists. I missed the climax the first time around and had to go back for it, so that seems to be an area for growth as well.
