Several books there that I will look into reading. It is also interesting how some respondents adding explanations and others just listed the book. Rex Stout is the only author whose books I read over and over, but there are lots of books by other authors that I would like to read again when I have time.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169151311037688512.post-35900164467970434942016-05-01T00:40:00.297-07:002016-05-01T00:40:00.297-07:00Mystica, I had no knowledge about this book, and t...Mystica, I had no knowledge about this book, and to think it was published in 2006.
