I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first in the series (this is the 2nd). I found the beginning to be rather dull, basically just setting everything up in case you hadn't read the first one. And, there were some discrepancies between what was described as happening to the characters prior to this book, and what actually did happen in the book. Some people might not noticed these little discrepancies, but I certainly did.

Once the book got going it was a good read. A bit darker than the first one, but that goes with the time period (post WWI, depression era). I have the 3rd in this series and will definitely read it as the writing is good overall.
