I know I hate investing time in a book and then it just gets to be too much.

Walters sounds like an author to get to know. The Ice House being a stunning debut -- a marvelous marriage of classic convention and contemporary sophistication. Minette Walters sets a new standard of excellence for the mystery novel. And she's written a good many more since then.
