Cloudland: A Crime Novel
by Joseph Olshan
Cloudland (3/5/2012)
Cloudland is a book for readers who love a well paced mystery. Taking place in rural snowy Vermont, this cozy has a literary bent. The mystery proceeds at a good pace due to rounded characters, evolved relationships and an innovative plot involving the work of real life Victorian novelist Wilkie Collins. All told, this is a richer than usual mystery. And, I did curl up in front of my fireplace to read it.
