The Toff Goes to Market by John Creasey
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I like reading the Creasey books because my mother loved reading them. I wonder if she liked this one?
There’s a good story here with lots of good characters and well written setting. However, the actual writing of the plot is too muddled to make a good book. The story dodges from one element to the next with poor elements of writing and makes the book often confusing. Adding that the interaction between the good guy vs all is entirely too cordial. Except those who are pre-written as bad guys. Varying the dialogue would have made the book more interesting instead of the segregated cast.
Since i know a bit of the black market during World War Ii, and now, that was well delineated. I wonder while Creasey was trying to chastise the black market he got lost assembling this story?
Bottom line: I don’t recommend this book. 4 out of 10 points.
