I
had lost track of Doug Hall over the years since we both worked at IBM Canada,
he in a different department than I. We didn’t connect again until after we
both retired and I moved into the same condo as he. I knew of him through his
broadcasting and watched his television shows over the years.
I
also knew he could write. I have read many of his fast-moving novels, which I
am addicted to, going back to “Seconds to Disaster” in the early 70’s. It is a
taunt mystery and when I first heard about the “Paul West Mystery Series” and,
having known Doug personally, I
purchased an Amazon copy and I sure
wasn’t disappointed. He has not lost his touch. Each one of the four books he
has written so far for the “series” is a page turner. There is no other way to
describe it.
I
just finished “MURDER IN SEASON” and was pleased to hear, when I saw him on
CTV’s Nightly News, saying he was writing the fifth one.
The
Paul West Mystery Series was a joy to discover and I know I shall look forward
to another fast-paced mystery.
