murder is only a game on tv
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Was it murder, or a series of highly coincidental accidents that took the lives of so many celebrities connected to the TV show, "The Murder Game"? Steve Allen and his real life wife must solve the mystery before they become victims as well. The book was very enjoyable, yet unbelievable. First off, I find it impossible to believe the LAPD wouldn't latch onto the accidents with suspicion sooner. Second, I could not believe the killer, who was so careful throughout the story would betray their identity in the final dramatic scene. Finally, Steve and Jayne's escape from death was a bit too difficult to swallow, especially with such a shallow explanation offered after the fact. Nevertheless, Mr Allen writes murder mysteries in the style of an old fashioned gentleman, which makes them a joy to read. Whatever happened to wit and manners?

I picked up 2 of S.A.'s books at library sale and was searching for more of his mystery titles; love the way he involves Jayne and himself into the books. END
