Product Description

The Globe and Mail

"...fans will be delighted with this fourth book. Readers who haven't yet encountered the clever Ms. MacPhee will find it an excellent place to begin."

Reviewing the Evidence

"Maffini has been called Canada's answer to Janet Evanovich for a reason. The Devil's in the Details is a quick, entertaining read."

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Mix of Mystery, Action and Comedy, Mar 29 2005
By Tania Hutchison - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Devil's in the Details (Paperback)
The 4th book in Maffini's series that features Camilla MacPhee, an Ottawa lawyer who works with crime victims, finds Camilla ready to relax over the Labour Day weekend. Unfortunately she learns that an old school friend has died, and she is listed as next of kin, even though they've never been good friends and haven't seen each other in quite a while. Camilla decides to look into the matter, hoping to at least find a more appropriate next of kin. Like with all good mysteries, nothing is ever as it seems.

The plot was interesting and fast-moving. Keeping things light were the funny dialogue and situations, as well as the quirky cast of characters. Camilla's perfect and nitpicking sisters, a unique assistant who never really does any work, a colorful old lady/neighbour who is always ready to jump into action, and a variety of other interesting friends and acquaintances make this book a fun ride.

The only problem with reading the book so quickly is that I'm already anxious for the next one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding customer service, Dec 24 2010
By Katherine Bade - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Devil's in the Details (Paperback)
I ordered an out of print book from the Book Depository. My book was due to be delivered by Dec. 15th and did not have a way to track it. When it didn't arrive by the morning of the 18th, I emailed the company. USPS delivered the book at 5 PM that day in perfect condition. I emailed them again later in the day to let them know. They responded to each of my messages promptly and courteously, promising to do whatever needed to make it right. This morning, 6 days later, I got a message explaining to customers that increased US security measures have delayed shipments from their UK warehouse and apologizing for any inconvenience with the delays (which are not their fault). I am totally impressed with their customer service, and would not hesitate to order again from them and recommend them to my friends. I thought I had already sent in a review for this purchase, but amazon emailed me again do to so, so I am.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Entertaining Book, May 31 2006
By ienjoyagoodbook - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Devil's in the Details (Paperback)
I am glad I ordered The Devil's in the Details by Mary Jane Maffini. Camilla MacFee's edges have softened, and she's more likable than ever. The very beginning of Chapter 29 had me in tears from laughing so hard.

Because Camilla cares so much about people who need her help, she winds up on the wrong end of the law. Alvin and Mrs. Parnell cheer her on from the sidelines, so they are involved just enough to make it fun, but not so much that we get tired of them.
