About book A Death In The Small Hours (2012)

#6 in the Charles Lenox mystery series set in London. Story open in 1874 with Charles superficially involved in his former private investigation practice and now the father of a 3 month old daughter and a rising member in the House of Commons. His former investigative endeavors has been taken over by his young protege Lord John Dallington, Lenox goes to his cousin's country estate as a vacation and to work on his speech that will open the House of Commons. He soon becomes involved in investigating a series of local vandalisms that have the local police baffled and that soon turn more serious.A good story with a lot time spend describing Lenox's daily life and family events. This is the first in the series I have listened to, and I think it affected the enjoyment of the story for me. Since I couldn't 'see' where I was in the book, when Lenox first thinks he solved the crime I thought the book was almost over. And then it kept going. And then I thought it was beginning to wrap up again. And it kept going. I enjoy the series, so I was happy there was more to listen to, but it kind of threw me off. I think if I had been physically reading, and could see that I still had at least 1/3 of the book to go, I would have been able to enjoy the ending more. I did enjoy the change of setting. It made for a nice change in the series.

Do You like book A Death In The Small Hours (2012)?

It didn't hold my interest as much as the previous books. One of the weaker books in a good series.

3.5 Not quite up to the level of Finch's earlier books.
