5.0 out of 5 stars The Murders Behind a Ring, Jan 11 2009
By Ian Gordon Malcomson (Smithers, Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Name to a Face (Mass Market Paperback)
The English murder mystery writer, Robert Goddard, has come up with yet another sparkler of a novel that, once again, does justice to his ability to tell a complex story that provides both clarity and brilliance. Like many other books in Goddard's collection, "Name to a Face" displays a number of great qualities that entice readers to become immersed in its intricate plot: the novel operates within a real-time historical chronology with events that many of us will recognize from our high school history days; it deals with authentic landmarks that help us to follow the movements of the main characters across the European landscape; and it relates a narrative whose outcome is intentionally hidden from view until the very end. With this in mind, "Name to a Face" begins with the sinking of the H.M.S. Association in 1707 off the Scilly Islands, proceeds to a murder some years later in Scilly, and, then, to another couple of murders in Penzance and Nice around the end of the 20th century; all have common efforts to recover a costly emerald ring that seems to appear and disappear under mysterious circumstances. The author's job in this novel is to take his readers through a labyrinth of human intrigue in an attempt to discover who is behind the killings and the whereabouts of the elusive ring. Along the way, we get treated to an expanding mystery that seems, at times, to raise more questions than answers. For Goddard, like any great crime writer, killings spawn more killings but, in the end, always draws the readers to the ultimate truth behind both the deed and motive. The best advice for reading a Goddard novel is to follow the clues carefully, allow for a certain degree of uncertainty and, then, brace yourself for encountering an outcome that is both reasonable and unexpected. That sums up the creative genius of the man.
