stonepicnicking_okapiThis is #11 in the Albert Campion series. I am not a huge Campion fan and so I clicked on this audiobook with very low expectations, but I am genuinely blown away.
It's an amnesia fic but it's the best amnesia fic I've ever read. And it deals with large conspiracy in a relatively believable way. And we have Campion and Amanda getting together. So there's a lot going on and it's really, really well done. So is the narration. Agatha Christie couldn't have written this type of story and make it this believable. So I tip my hat to Dame Margery.
If I ever write another amnesia fic, I'm going to get a hard copy of this and look at how it's done. So a big and pleasant surprise in the word department this week. And of course, now I am going to be looking at other Campions to see if I've missed more gems.
