AS THE INSPECTOR SAID (by John Escott)

GENRE: Thriller
STRUCTURE: Five stories with different characters and plots
NARRATOR: Third person narrator and dialogues
STYLE: The language in every story is very engaging and dark
PLOT: In this book there are five stories. the story I liked most was the last. Elliston, the protagonist, asked Listner, a killer, to kill his wife; so Listner go inside the girl's room and meet Elliston, who says him that he will give him money only when his wife'll be dead. So Listner waits into a cupboard but a French servant enters in the room and Listner kills her. So he takes the money and go out but Elliston doesn't know that his wife is still alive.
PERSONAL COMMENT: I quite liked reading this book; especially some stories like the first and the last are pretty cool, the other are a bit predictable. Finally, the stories are full are full of twists and when you begin to read one you don't want to stop.
