“Brenda Mohammed is a refreshing author who brings out the
best in her characters. Barry Holmes Mysteries includes three
short stories introducing Barry and his deductive reasoning
skills.
I found the stories simple, but the plots unusual.
From the beginning, the author seizes the reader's interest
and draws
you into the lives of her characters and the beautiful
Caribbean Islands.
Each story holds all the elements of a good mystery novel
; well-rounded characters, a solid plot, and twists that unfold
as the crimes are solved.
The author is known for her diverse interests and writing
abilities, which come out in her stories. I enjoyed reading this
book and look forward to other Barry Holmes mysteries."
