Kaor, Paul!
ReplyDeleteOne of the things I recalled about MURDER IN BLACK LETTER was my dissatisfaction at seeing so little about Trygve Yamamura, despite that being called a Yamamura mystery. That, and so much of the focus being on Kintyre jarred with my preconceptions of how a mystery was written.
That said, I was interested in a plot involving things like incunabula and other old books. Plus, many after I first read MURDER, I found an unexpected connection linking that book to WE CLAIM THESE STARS.
