About this ebook

Inspector Wilde is a rabid fan of tit-tat, the broadsheet arguments that get printed several times a day; the Chief Inspector thinks he's an idiot, but Wilde's strange reading habits may just crack this case wide open.

Ratings and reviews

My favorite authors are those who leave some details out so ones imagination can fill them in. I also appreciate linguistic gymnastics,, or long sentences that seem to trail off into nowhere and meanders itself back to a logical, and satisfying, reconciliation. Another aspect is the unexpected. This short story was well worth reading and makes me want to read more from Mr. G.D.Falksen.

What! Turn the page to see what's next and the book is over. Done. Nothing to know more about salad Monday. Most know more!
