Enjoyable
Published by Jerry B , 3 years ago
Fun read , I’ve read four of the books ,Department Q , nice characters easy to follow , if you like the genre and aren’t looking anything earth changing. As if there is anything new in plots, good guy bad guy, dive in the water is fine.
A bit too steeped in mail ego for my taste
