This had the makings of a good story but the writers tried too hard to give their modern characters similar foibles and mannerisms of their namesakes. There were also a number of plot holes (Who gave them the anonymous tip in their initial case and what happened to the kidnapped dog?). Throwing a plethora of unrelated crimes at the reader did not enhance my reading experience. It just sowed unnecessary confusion. Was the case of the missing bible ever solved? I read the whole tale but, in spite of the hype, am not eagerly awaiting a sequel.
