Rainbow's End by Martha Grimes
Reader Reviews 1 of 6 people found the following review helpful: Travelogue or Mystery?, October 22, 2001 Reviewer: Petchy Sargent from Santa Fe, NM United States This is the second Grimes book I've read (both Richard Jury mysteries). I found the plots, with various twists and turns, to be believable and entertaining. The characters are well defined and easy to relate to, and there is good humor interspersed. However, what I didn't like at all were the interminable descriptions of landscapes, scenes, even a cat! I also find Ms. Grimes' use of obscure/big words mildly irritating. If all the excess verbage could be eliminated, I'd say these would be page turners. As they are, it's almost a chore to pick them up.
