This is a romance novel. It might be a good romance novel. But it is a terrible mystery/thriller. It is not clear in the publishers description that this is first and foremost a Romance. I only made it a couple of chapters in, and I should have quit after the first couple of paragraphs. If you are looking for a romance with a bit of mystery, this might be the novel for you, otherwise, steer clear.

I’m always looking for mysteries with engaging characters, and I really enjoy getting to know Cal Corwin, the lead character in this series.

The plot development in this short story isn’t as well conceived as in the full length mysteries in the series, but still very enjoyable.

Some readers may find the characters a bit stereotypic and two dimensional- but I appreciate it when the characters in novels don’t behave in ridiculous ways contrary to who the author has created them to be.

This is not Elizabeth George or Tana French, but Off The Leash is nonetheless an enjoyable distraction.

Not at all what I expected. Annoying narration. Annoying characters doing stupid things for no apparent reason whatsoever.

Yikes. I thought this would be an interesting blast from the past, but the story is plodding, the characters are not engaging, and the narrator is pretty over the top. Pick a different Crichton novel, this one deserves to stay on the shelf.

Engaging and well written. The narrator was not a distraction from the story. Stroby offers a unique protagonist who is rather over the top while still making her believable.

Craig Johnson writes really well, his characters are multifaceted, and his plots are unpredictable. This is an excellent series. His plotting and settings remind me a bit of Jamie Harrison and her Jules Clement mysteries.
