A review by eserafina42
Death in Focus by Anne Perry

4.0

Not quite what I expected - more suspense than mystery, though a lot of questions are answered at the end. Maybe a bit too dependent on coincidence - at least twice total strangers appear out of the blue to help the main character out of a tight spot. Hopefully, this is just setting the stage and she will be doing more acting rather than being acted upon in future installments. I did like the portrayal of the effect of WWI on so many people even almost 20 years later, and how it affected their view of what was happening in Germany in the 30s. Also, the description of the book burning was incredibly and horribly vivid.
