This wacky mystery -- about a violin case with a missing formula -- is set partly on hiking trails in Europe. Mixups with physicists and spies lead from Oregon to a Greek monastery, an Italian... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I really enjoyed reading "The Case of Einstein's Violin." I am a long-time fan of Bill Sullivan's guides to hiking in Oregon and his other non-fiction works. His knowledge and smooth writing style are consistently exceptional. These qualities shine in this mystery novel, Sullivan's first work of fiction. Not only is the plot exciting and the characters well developed, but Einstein's Violin is also a true-to-life European travel guide in disguise. As you follow the characters' travels around the continent, you will long to experience the vividly described settings first hand. I particularly liked how the story alternates between each of the two main character's perspectives as the mystery unfolds and is ultimately resolved. If your like me, you'll find it difficult to put this book down. Highly recommended!
