Hilary Fenton finds the student in the rooms next door dead, apparently from an accident while cleaning his gun.
The first chapter was funny but the condescending eye-dialect for Mrs Bigger and the author showing off his familiarity with university slang rapidly got tiresome - one more “sported oak“ and I would have screamed. The actual mystery was good but the romance with the Profile was very unconvincing.
bthegood I don't read about this author much - I read one of his books years ago as it was in a box of books bought at a library book sale - I enjoyed it 6mo
