Who Slays the Wicked by C.S.Harris (Sebastian St. Cyr 14)


"Sebastian wasn't prepared to take anything Princess Ivanna Gagarin told him at face value."
The long awaited next instalment of the adventures of a certain Sebastian St. Cyr was happily provided by my fantastic partner in literary admiration, book buddy Nicki. This latest mystery starts with violence, and the gore continues. It is hard to be concerned about who done it, when the victim is a thoroughly unlikeable guy, but as the body count rises, the plot thickens.

If I had any quibbles they would probably only be that there wasn't enough Hero for my liking. While the plot meanders with increasing complexity, it is nonetheless, another engaging story from C.S. Harris.

5 out of 5 everybody dies eventually.
