I wasn’t too impressed by my first Henry Gamadge: Unexpected Night but also not put-off by the author. I am glad that the second one which again involved wills, children, impersonation, natural and unnatural parents, gypsies, poisoned berries read better than the first one. Rather boldly, I thought, the author also disregarded a literary/ social convention. I will certainly be reading the next in the series.
Have you read this series? How do you find it?
First Line: ON FRIDAY EVENING, September the eighth, 1939, Mr. Henry Gamadge sat beside his open library window, doing several things at once.
Publication Details: Felony and Mayhem, 2013
First Published: 1940
Series: Henry Gamadge #2
Oh, so glad to hear you liked this one better, Neeru! Perhaps Even if I didn’t like Gamadge, myself, it’s nice when you see that staying with a series pays off.

Yes, I am also happy to have given it another try, Margot. I am intrigued by the third in the series; Murders in Vol. II

This is one I haven’t read yet. But I do have a copy, I found it at a book sale a few years ago. I will put it on my “reading in 2021” list.
