Starange but True

Read Colin Dexter's "The Daughter of Cain" over
the last week. Apparently it is one of only
472 books. Why such a short run who knows.

But there were a number of mistakes. Ignoring
the spelling errors, which were numerous, e.g
'uf'instead of 'if', and once a 'of' instead
of a 'if.'

There were two large errors. The first there
was suppose to be a sketch of a knife. There
was room for the sketch but the space was BLANK!!
Secondly there was to be a sketch of handle of a
knife were there was writing on one side and once
again the space was empty.

Also in a space that was showing the opening of
a museum it said "12 a.m. to 4 p.m." then it said
as it was after noon there was a crowd of school
children waiting to enter. So it really should
have been 12 p.m.!

Even the story wasn't that great. Just a OK read.
