4.0 out of 5 stars Okay, But No "Spend Game", Jan 19 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Great California Game (Paperback)

Too many characters and too many unlikely events almost make this a caricature of Lovejoy, definitely not as good as Lovejoy's "Spend Game". The english physician who writes under the name of Jonathan Gash leaned on too many stereotypes, and yet, even a moderately good Lovejoy mystery is superior to most of the stuff out there. Those lucky enough to have watched the TV Lovejoy during its run on A&E during the mid 90s, will, as a reviewer below observed, discover a much more realistic and edgy Lovejoy in print. I have read five Lovejoys, this is the weakest so far (but still worth reading).
