Where Evil Sleeps

Rating:
Summary: Basil, my brother, you were missed!
Review: After reading Valerie Wilson Wesley's "When Death Comes Stealing," I eagerly awaited her next book. I read "Devil's Gonna Get Him" and all I could say was, "Where's Basil DuPree?" I waded through this book hoping Basil would come. He didn't disappoint me...but the rest of the novel did. The action is slow and Tamara, a seasoned detective stumbled on the solution almost by accident. Where is the spark from the first novel?

Summary: Something Special
Review: I think this book is EXCELLENT! At the end of each chapter I couldn't stop reading. The characters were well described and the emotions were well thought out. This is the second Tamara Hayle mystery I read and I can't wait to read the others. I would also like to compliment the illustrator because the cover is what caught my attention to buy the book. I can easily say that this book is Something Special.

Summary: Okay, but could've been better...
Review: This is the first I've read of Mrs Wesley's books and I must say I was slightly disappointed. The ending was weak and we never heard about the killer until the end (he wasn't mentioned much throughout the story except for in the club scene so I'd never thought he'd be the killer). But I guess that's where the "mystery" comes in. Plus, it would have been good to know whatever happened between her and Basil. The ending just left me hanging.

Summary: A good read!
Review: This is the second Tamara Hayle mystery that Ive read and I can't wait for the third. However, I must admit that this one was a bit more difficult to follow than her first novel. I agree with the other reader who said that Tamara seemed to stumble upon the answer to this mystery, rather than relying on her detective skills to solve it. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the book and cannot wait to see what becomes of Tamara's relationship with Basil!

Review: WHERE EVIL SLEEPS wasn't as fast-paced as the last two Tamara Hayle mysteries, but it still had a good storyline that was filled with interesting characters and enough action and mystery to keep me reading. It had it's moments of filler space, still, keep reading. A good third novel in this series. Mrs. Wilson-Weseley, keep the ball rolling!
