A very literate mystery, this story weaves the story of Sam Sheppard (of which numerous books and tv and movies have been made...think The Fugitive) and the story of a New York couple and another side story about a detective and his spousal issues into one really interesting story. At times, it's difficult to tell which story Adam Ross intends to make the main one and for folks who don't like books that "jump around" from story line to story line, I would recommend avoiding this one. But if you like your mysteries wrapped in studies of human behavior and observations of the marital condition, then you'll enjoy Mr. Peanut.
