Paul Oldham reviewed Three Dog Problem by S. J. Bennett
The Thursday Murder Club moves to the Palace
3 stars
It was rather late in the day, when I was about two thirds of the way through this but, that I read a review that likened in to Osman's Thursday Murder Club novels and they're not wrong. Like those books it's more to do about being comfortable with the characters than the plot itself, and with this one the lead character is HMQ herself which SJ Bennett obviously had a great affection for.
So it's gentle read, with the direction of travel being fairly unsurprising throughout, but none the worse for that. This is also the second book in the series, and there's a third due out soonish so I can see me coming back for one and three.
Oh, and nice hat tip to Sherlock Holmes in the title by the way.
