Okay but not overly excited


Southern Discomfort
by Margaret Maron

I enjoyed The Bootlegger's Daughter series #1 just enough to risk a second. It wasn't disappointing--complex plot and real world crimes, and you get to see a judge hand down the kind of unbiased, compassionate sentences that you wish you could pronounce yourself. The courtroom scenes are my favorite part.

Beyond that I don't have any helpful comments to offer. Just a good, exceptionally solid, light mystery. Maybe I shouldn't say "just". Good mysteries are not all that common. Objection sustained--strike the "just".
