I thought the ending to this book was fantastic! It is my favourite book of the year so far. I think a break in reading may have caused you to forget some hings, meaning it wasn't as good as it could have been. I'm pleased that you still managed to enjoy it though. I see it was you who persuded me to get a copy though - so thank you! .-= Jackie (Farm Lane Books)´s last blog ..Stone’s Fall – Iain Pears =-.

I have had this on my TBR pile for a while but your review has just persuaded me to buy a copy – thank you!

I have a copy of An Instance of the Fingerpost, but haven’t yet read it. I have been curious about this book, and have been waiting to see some reviews. This is the first I have seen, and I am glad that you found it interesting. I am thinking about taking a closer look at this book. Thanks for the great review!

I’ve read several of Pear’s art history mystery series, but none of his stand-alone novels. The art history ones are pretty well-written and entertaining, so I know he’s a good writer. I might keep this one in mind for the winter when I know I’m going to have some large blocks of time to read.

I loved this book, while not thinking that it was quite as clever as ‘An Instance of the Fingerpost’, to which it is inevitably being compared. I agree completely that you should try and read it straight through and I too failed to see where the end was going, even though, when you get there the immediate reaction is “Oh Yes!”

This sounds really interesting – I like complex plots. I especially like mysteries that I can’t figure out. Sounds like I should find myself a copy of this book!

I do really like long and involved mysteries, I confess, and this one sounds interesting. I haven’t read anything by this author, but I’ve seen his name pop up a lot lately. I’ll have to look into trying one of his books. Thanks for the great review, Meghan!
