This short story anthology, No Mercy (Sgt Major Crane Story), begins my introduction to Wendy
Cartmell’s writing. The book consists
of three, quick and easy to read mysteries; No
Mercy features, Sergeant Major Crane.
The last story is an autobiographical piece, which I
question the author’s reason for including it in a mystery anthology.
The mysteries have a ring of familiarity; I have either read
similar stories or have viewed comparative TV shows.
I always appreciate the element of surprise in a good
mystery. I expected unpredictable endings to the three mysteries; however
bleak, I must express disappointment.
The author’s writing style is flawless for composing mysteries,
and readers will notice her passion. I encourage, Wendy Cartmell, to continue
writing mysteries in the future, however, adding originality to her stories.
I recommend, No Mercy
(Sgt Major Crane Story), by Wendy Cartmell, to readers of all ages.
