I enjoyed it. An older woman on YT considered it one of her favorite police procedurals, so I gave it a try.

I really want to like these classic detective novels, but I remember nothing about the first one and despite a fairly interesting premise the second one is just not gripping me at all. Maybe I'll come back to it one day.
