The book got off slowly, but picked up later. It is very light reading as the crime gets solved too easily.

The best part of the "Eleanor Roosevelt detective" series is Elliott Roosevelt didn't write the books. He hired someone else to research and write them, and then just took credit for them. This may sound somewhat despicable, but it is the least of his problems with doing "what was right," as described in depth in the Wikipedia article on him.
