Book Review of Summer's Lease

Summer's Lease
reviewed on + 813 more book reviews


When a Brit family leases a house in a Tuscan village for the summer, they get more than they bargained for. To begin, wifey's womanizing father forces himself into the party. They shortly run out of water. Their landlord has disappeared in a mysterious manner, his agent having met his demise under questionable circumstances. Wifey finally puts it all together although not to the satisfaction of your typical "Sherlock Holmes" fanatic. No deep reading here, merely a pleasurable read in the vein of Wodehouse.
