Review of "Murder Mezzo Forte" by Donn Taylor


This book continues the story of Preston and Mara and their investigative escapades. This is book two of this series. This book definitely stands alone on it's own Good for me cause I have yet to read "Rhapsody in Red". on it's own, good for me as I have not yet read "Rhapsody in Red". After reading this book, I am definitely going to pick up 'Rhapsody in Red"

Murder is not funny, but Taylor brings humor to this story which takes away some of the darkness which for me is good. I absolutely loved this book and the writing style of Taylor. This book kept me guessing til the end which is what a good mystery  does. "Murder Mezzo Forte", is such a good book, it's a real page turner, the kind you don't want to put down til you finish the book. 

When Preston and Mara find the body of fellow professor, Mitra Fortier, after she has summoned them to her office. This is a story full of twist and turns from the start. Since they had solved a murder before, they were expected to solve this one. 

There is also a bit of romance between Preston and Mara that adds to the story. They are always trying to be very careful because of the jeopardy it may bring to their jobs. The musical hallucinations of Preston give us a huge glimpse into his personality and humor. 

This was a fun book to read and if you enjoy a good mystery, you'll enjoy this book. I highly recommend it!
