The Clutter Corpse | Simon Brett

A professional declutterer is used to dealing with unpleasant surprises... but a dead body is new. Interesting premise and backstory, but the prose is often sloppy and the solution of the mystery isn't very satisfying. It almost feels like Brett would rather have been writing a sad, misogynistic novel.

I‘m in New Jersey to house sit for the next two weeks. 1. Audiobook to keep me company on the road.
2. We‘ll be going out for pizza for dinner.
3. Yesterday I went for a nature walk at a local park.
4. I reorganized my bookshelves, donated several books, and brought with me enough reading material for two months.
5. I had a good weekend at the ballpark for my last games of the season.

A perfect ending but a very strange, creepy book and I‘m not sure what genre you would really put this in. Podcaster and urban explorer, Lisa Lee, disappears about the same time a very valuable casket appears for auction. It was last seen on her video exploration. Podcasters Sophie and Fin try to find Lisa.

Not quite as hard-boiled as the original, but a pretty good imitation of Chandler's style. I didn't find the mystery all that interesting.

I liked the way this started. It was fun to read the investigation, and see how the detective's thought processes worked. After about half the book, the writing started to feel a little stilted, like the author was checking off an invisible check list. It was a good mystery story but seemed average at the same time.
