Alex Auswaks -JERUSALEM (Israel) POST MAGAZINE: The sleuth is Judge Harold J. Hudson, trying hard not to be a roué and fortunately failing! The scene is a small city with an annual Shakespeare festival. In the hotel room directly above that of Judge Hudson the star of Macbeth lies murdered. The three witches of the play weave their lives into that of Judge Hudson (token resistance only). They share digs and it appears that one of them had tried to lose her virginity with the star who played Macbeth, only to find his dead body in bed. Instead of calling the police (fancy telling the police why she is there) she leaves the scene of the crime. . A pair of knickers is an important clue. This is a lovely piece of theater and pastiche such as that great Historian of the pastiche and the theater, John Kennedy Melling, would revel in. There are quotations from the Bard, charming drawings by the author and the final sentence is an epitaph to any relationship, especially marriage: "And they quarreled happily ever after". MARIE LANDIS, Author of "Memorymakers" and "Blood on the Sun": “I loved it! I enjoyed the ‘Witch Women’ and their machinations. The mythological connections were intriguing and so was the crime. Lots of twists and turns for Judge Hudson and me to follow. Also loved the drawings!!!!”
