The Goodbye Look by Ross Macdonald
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a good detective novel that has an ending that is hard to figure out. This is another Lew Archer round by the author who calls himself “MacDonald” (I recently leaned that none of the names he is printed with is his actual name). It seemed to me MacDonald worked a little too hard with the complexity of the story and had trouble getting it all to flow together. I believe that is why I had a bit of trouble following just who all the characters are in the book. Maybe that was his intent to make solving the mystery by the reader hard to do. I would recommend this book to those looking to settle in for a good mystery.
