Penny might have disappeared but Po is here to stay with us!, Jun 23 2000
By Sunder Iyer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Disappearance of Penny (Paperback)
Critics call it "fast-moving and exciting" and "a solid debut." The Disappearance of Penny sees Henry "Hank" Po- a Racing Commision Investigator tackle a clueless case of looking for a horse owners young daughter. Many people including her father don't even care about her missing...while others want him scratched. PERMANENTLY.It is a first person narrative with a very credible plot. The writing style is fluent and mixes up past and presence tenses to narrate the story and to express the writer's thoughts at that moment, respectively. The action is fast, gripping and realistic and will leave you gasping for air. To give an extra touch of reality, the author uses routine objects such as magazines and locally infamous guns like Colt .38.
The author brings to life the expressions and feelings of our hero. Example: Henry gets angry at himself when he loses control and fistfights a hired killer. Henry as a character is charming and uses his deductive skills and his good luck to solve the case.
It is an amazing read and whodidwhat in this whodunit is sure to raise many eyebrows.
