tiranda’s book reviews
"Hanaud is not particularly impressive or likeable as the detective. All the characters are cardboard cutouts and not believable as real people."
". . . what really happened is unveiled only later: a remarkable story which fits perfectly in the esoterism craze of the early 20th century."
I suspect the two lead characters are somewhat inspired by Holmes/Watson, and Zarla sounds like a takeoff on Katharine Hepburn, or the sort of woman Hepburn played in the 30s.
