Poor Butterfly by Stuart M. Kaminsky
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was so tickled to find another Toby Peters novel that I started reading it in the check out lane. I became even more tickled that someone I’d read alot about this past year was a star in the book – Leopold Stokowski.
As Kaminsky’s Toby Peters fans know, the best part of his series is the inclusion of celebrities mixed into the stories. Sometimes the fit is rough. This time it’s just right. Kaminsky knows Stokowski very well and he makes use of his many quirks and eccentricities well throughout the story.
The plot is pretty typical for a mystery. Kaminsky dresses it up as best as possible, but it’s still standard. He piles on a bunch about a religious cult that is interesting. The characters are very good, especially Peters and Stokowski. Kaminsky cleverly added details of Stokowski that many would find hard to believe, but are true.
Bottom line: i recommend this book. 6 out of 10 points.
