Valleri's Reviews > The Coroner's Lunch

I'll be honest with you. I started reading this book and felt like it wasn't my kind of book AT ALL. I put it down and read a different book. Then, I picked The Coroner's Lunch back up ... and became completely enchanted!

I absolutely love the main cast of characters. I love the dry humor. As I read I was reminded of the Botswanan series of books by Alexander McCall Smith, but I liked the first novel in the Dr. Siri Paiboun series much better. I really enjoyed insights into all of the aspects of this mysterious country and its societies, and all the many disparate threads are bought together in a masterful way at the end. On to the next book!
