PaperMoon | 674 comments A very enjoyable short read, written in a classic no-nonsense gumshoe style. I liked our more mature, battered but well worn in MC.

Character development was pared to the basic, with just right amount of back-story provided for our sleuth Rhys (pronounced Russ) Morgan, judiciously interjected to the plot 'action'. I liked that the focus was more on uncovering the 'mystery/perpetrator' rather than having to wade through pages of text spent on the MC's fears/anxieties/relational woes etc.

I appreciated the author not throw in unnecessary romance and/or sex in what promises to be an excellent start to a series of whodunnits (here's to hoping).

Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed this one too and hope the author continues writing this series, especially because of a more mature MC, so few seen in the gay mystery/suspense genre
