Amuse Bouche: The first Russell Quant mystery in a New Edition with Foreword by the Author
More like a 3 1/2 stars. Canadian writer. Story is set in Saskatoon of all places. Russell Quant, ex cop, is working as a PI. Bidulka paints vivid images of his city and the people. So Russell is gay, big deal. The strength of the novel is the plot and clues the reader is given along the way. I liked Russell, I liked his friends and how he goes doing his business. I liked how Bidulka built up the suspense and finally had Russell put two and two together. A very nice surprise. Will read the next novel in this series.
