The Knotted Strings

Summary: More Mo please
Review: In the genre of blind sculptor-sleuths, Mo Bowdre stands alone. It's interesting that another author who uses a blind sleuth also had a Georgia O'Keeffe theme in a mystery. Both have their strong points. This is a pleasant read just for spending time with Mo and the inhabitants of his community. It's not the best of the Mo books, but it's a keeper for the time being. Mo uses his ability to think things out to solve local mysteries when he isn't creating powerful animal sculptures.

Summary: Slow development.
Review: The book's presentation of the characters and their lives in the small towns of New Mexico are entertaining. But the developments in solving the murders are few and far between. The solving of the mystery is not dealt with well.
