Set to Kill

Rating:
Summary: an underrated top-shelf mystery novel
Review: I've been a fan of Arthur Marx for many years, and his writing style has influenced me greatly. From his biographies of such stars as Bob Hope and Groucho Marx to his contributions to the 1970s sitcom, 'Alice', Arthur's writings have never failed to entertain. 'Set To Kill' is his first fiction title, and a fine one at that. Marx's dark humor mixed in with a suspenseful storyline captivates readers from page one and makes 'Set To Kill' a real page-turner. Though it was released over a decade ago, this witty and thought-provoking prose can stand on its own against any of today's top-selling mystery novels.
