Review:
“Brenda Mohammed is a refreshing author who brings out the
best in her characters. Barry Holmes Mysteries includes three short stories introducing
Barry and his deductive reasoning skills.
I found the stories simple, but the plots unusual. From the
beginning, the author seizes the reader's interest and draws you into the lives
of her characters and the beautiful Caribbean Islands.
Each story holds all the elements of a good mystery novel;
well-rounded characters, a solid plot, and twists that unfold as the crimes are
solved.
The author is known for her diverse interests and writing
abilities, which come out in her stories. I enjoyed reading this book and look
forward to other Barry Holmes mysteries."
