Book Review Blurb: The Eighth Detective by Alex Pavesi

Despite my general lack of interest in short stories, I really liked this one. The book is a back-and-forth with short stories from one of the main character’s books and the contemporary narrative interaction between a journalist and said author. There’s mystery and intrigue on every page, both in the shorts and in the longer story, and I found the alternations generally quite engaging and readable. I loved the way it all tied together - this book really is a love song for murder mysteries, and I found the ending satisfying and delightful. This was a great find!!

And how fabulous is that cover??
