DANGEROUS DAVIES AND THE LONELY HEART

Dangerous Davies, a brand new private eye, is involved in many minor and a few major mysteries in this fourth book in the Leslie Thomas series. Cognitive skills à la Sherlock Holmes are not the route to unraveling these puzzles; rather sheer luck and bumbling along reveal the solutions. Funny and poignant, the characters range from Mod, the itinerant philosopher, to Sestrina, the smart-as-a-whip vamp. They are each brilliantly portrayed by Gregory York with an astonishing breadth of accents and vocal acrobatics. B.H.B. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC/JAN 01]
