2024 book 25

 Patricia Wentworth's The Case of William Smith

I am just really vibing with the Miss Silver mysteries! I would have read this all in one sitting had my schedule allowed. This one involves a young man with amnesia due to a head injury during WWII; he now works at a toy store but there are hints he has a loftier background. Also, someone is trying to kill him. And someone else is keeping secrets! Leave it to Miss Silver to unravel everything. I really liked this until the end; the explanations for villainous behavior were weird and the “here's what happened” was long and boring because we knew it all already. Otherwise entertaining! B+.
