Debt of Dishonour: Debt of Dishonour
Debt of Dishonour: Debt of Dishonour | Robert Goddard
5 posts | 3 read
A classic English murder mystery from the author of Into the Blue. Set in the glittering, grandiose Cote d'Azur of the Roaring '20s, and spanning twelve years, this romantic and passionate tale tells of an illicit love beyond all bounds . . . a murder beyond all imaginings . . . and a web of betrayals more complex than any of its characters could ever have dreamed.

I love Goddard's books & this one did not disappoint. It kept me guessing. His characters are so unique & very believable. Lots of twists & turns kept the pages turning until the very surprise ending. The plot was very calculating & the murderer obscure. All Goddard's books are very well-written and fascinating and sure to hold your interest. I highly recommend this book to those who love historical mystery.

I finished this. That made me glad. It started well, then started to not be good before finishing badly.

When I started this I lost myself in the mannered, formal world of post-WW1 England. The echoes of classic adventure stories I read growing up made it so appealing. Oh my days though how it has dragged. Enduring the advancement is like wading through wet sand in oversized wellies. It‘s a good bedtime read though. I‘ve never had so little trouble nodding off. Onward we go...

Mannered, slow-paced and atmospheric, this reminds me of John Buchan's novels. I loved The 39 Steps when I was growing up so this suits me very well.

Another great masterpiece from Robert Goddard, he is truly the master of telling a great yarn with twists and Suspense evident throughout. This one is set in the years either side of the First World War, and revolves around a murder and the events that led up to it and followed it. Within this we have a trial, great characterisation, plotting and storyline. Robert Goddard does write the most evocative and colourful sentences. I do recommend this.
