As always the Ames do not disappoint. I have to agree they are very much like the other great murder-caper duo Nick and Nora. I thoroughly enjoy reading these mysteries. There is always an element of surprise. The humorous dialogue between husband and wife is wonderfully wicked. The description of the clothes Amor wears makes me dream of having a 1930s wardrobe. The character of Winnelda adds these little bits of situational amusement and in this book who could forget the monkey. I absolutely enjoyed reading the latest installment of this series.
