The Lookout

My review -
This
is a story of fascinating characters as much as anything. Three adult sisters
live together, the oldest looking after them with a very firm hand. Their
mother is dead and their father has gone away. They have a brittle relationship
with a housekeeper. Tom is a strange man who becomes fascinated with the
youngest sister then disappears. Eden Reid is asked by a friend to look for him
while she's in the area on business.
I
really enjoyed this 'mystery'. I use the quotation marks because the reader
sees what happens and it's Eden and her friends who have to put the clues
together. Deduction isn't the same as evidence, however, and much though they
are convinced they know what happened, and even why, their problem is in making
anyone else believe it. A great story, well told.
