Elsie doesn't feel like the same character at all. And Lam is more on the make here than I ever noticed before. i wonder if the characters would have turned out different had the publisher not rejected this one.

i have the attention span of a knat lately. this is a pretty good showing for Bertha and a weak one for Lam, but largely enjoyable

This feels a bit more misogynistic than I recall any of the other installments I read being, still this feels more like the strong Bertha from the other early books and less like the one in Bat's Fly at Dusk. I think Gardner isn't real solid on his characterization and his major chars don't feel super consistent, at least not in their early appearances. Mason in the early books feels nothing like Burr's portrayal.
