Exceptionally Good! April 5, 1999
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I read lots of mysteries, and this one especially delighted me with its well-drawn characters and period flavor. I didn't expect 1890s Toronto to be so interesting! The denouement is very exciting, and there are a couple of most-unusual crook nabbers who are particularly "fetching." EXCEPT THE DYING goes on my A#1 list.
Great feel; Puts you "right" there, engaging. July 29, 1998

Jennings' insight into the human condition is provocative, yet touched with a velvet glove. In her first novel (mystery), she is able to transport the reader into another time and place enabling the reader to experience the Toronto of yesterday. Her characters are definitely not the stereotypical dribble that we too many times find in this genre. This is a mystery with real people, living real lives, in a real world. I highly recommend it as not only a "good read", but also as a time well spent. A good investment.
