Content: There is swearing, including multiple f-bombs, and some pretty graphic descriptions of burned bodies. It’s in the mystery section of the bookstore.

Our intrepid detective, Ernest Cunningham, is looking for a bank loan to start his own personal detective agency. He’s been turned down by every bank he’s tried, that is until he gets a personal invitation from a bank in Huxley. Once there, though, the bank gets held up, and Ernest, his fiancé Juliet, and eight other people are sucked into a hostage situation. Which turns into a murder mystery.

Much like the others in the series, this is a smartly written, amusing murder mystery. Stevenson has collected an interesting bunch of people, and wove their stories together in interesting ways. It was good enough that we got discracted while we were driving and missed a couple of exits. And I think Stevenson even stuck the landing – it was satisfying without being maudlin.

I really love this series, and this is a good addition to it.
