Review: The Loudwater Mystery
The Loudwater Mystery by Edgar Jepson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book was originally published in 1920. It is well-written and entertaining. Some of the word choice may be antiquated for today's reader, but I did not find that this was prevalent.
I thought that this book had quite the surprise ending, as good murder mysteries should. I am rarely surprised by the reveal in a mystery, I've usually got it figured out by the time the author reveals it. If I haven't got it completely sussed, I at least have strong suspicion. That was not the case with this novel. I was quite pleased to be surprised.
