2023 book 47

 Melissa Scott's Point of Sighs

The fifth book in this series is very slow, until the last ten percent, which is very tense. But I’m not even going to try to do a plot summary, because the plots/mysteries in these books, and especially in this one, are overly complicated. By the end of this one, I barely remembered what had started their investigation in the first place. Seriously! I liked all the stuff with the various fantasy cop groups and their politics, but that got subsumed in everyone wandering around all the time while more plot happened to them. Not to sound all grumpy about it! It was a fine book. I’m just frustrated. B.
