Mehso-so

Book 2 in Philo Vance series and the only one in the series I've read. Clever set up for the mystery, but I didn't enjoy the way Vance solved it.

My first foray in #serieslove2023 - the first book in the Philo Vance series. I'm only a few pages into it; so, we'll see. 👀

Andrew65 These look good, I will be interested to hear your thoughts on them. 2y
TheSpineView It has books on the cover, that is always a good start. 2y
MaGoose @TheSpineView Yes, I think so to. 2y
Jess_Read_This Oh! This looks interesting! The intro by Ragnar Jonasson caught my eye. I‘ve really enjoyed Jonasson‘s books. If he‘s doing the intro, this one ought to be good! 2y

Pickpick

Philo Vance, America's most popular fictional detective of the 1920s and 1930s, moved from S. S. Van Dine's novels onto the silver screen and later radio. The aristocratic amateur sleuth was portrayed in more than 100 radio broadcasts by Jackson Beck. Return to the scene of the crime in eighteen classic whodunits.

I listened to these radio broadcasts and found them very interesting. If you love classic whodunits, these stories are for you!

Bklover Makes me think of listening to Mystery Theater on the radio a loooong time ago! 6y
EadieB @Bklover In the good old days! 6y
