A review by vsbedford
The Norths Meet Murder by Frances Lockridge, Richard Lockridge

3.0

Easy, breezy police procedural set in 1940s New York - and be prepared with all the casual racism, classism, and sexism that comes along with that era. The writing is snappy, and some of the dialogue very well done, but the mystery is incomprehensible. The Lockridges are obviously no Hammett, but the boozy Norths are a perfectly serviceable substitute for Nick and Nora fans.

I received an ecopy from the publishers and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
