Presumed Dead

The goosebumps raised on my arms by page 15; should I continue reading? Should I leave well-enough alone and just be scarred without finding out why? Needless to say, I read and read and read. It's one of the best dectective books I have read in ages. I loved all the characters and, of course, Larry, Judy, Edna and the evil Mistress and good old Homer. What a talent behind the author. I commend you Hugh Holton for writing a good mystery - with a solution - or was there? Talk about a kicker ending!And, because of the fact that I love familiar characters, I logged on (at 1:00 a.m, mind you) to find out what other books you have written and lo and behold found out there is a series on Larry Cole. Thank you - thank you. I shall read them all.

Well, what's to say except buy or borrow this series. Holton is turning out some entertaining stories. These books fall into the "is it over?" catagory. The type of stories that one wishes that they will never end. I just hope that the author does not run out of ideas for us, the readers. If it is a cold dark rainy night, with strange creaks in the house, and shutters banging in the wind, the stories take on another dimension. Turn off all the lights and read by candle lite.....BOO! Cheers and enjoy...
