Editorial Book Review:

By Solange Roe

From the first chapter, Davis MacDonald grips readers with a mystery that is both intense and deeply personal. The Summit House Murder stands out for its layered plot, combining a classic whodunit with contemporary social insight, keeping you guessing while also reflecting on the complexities of human ambition and loyalty. This book takes you into a world of tension, suspense, and intrigue, where every conversation, clue, and mistake matters, and you feel like you're right there with The Judge as you read.

The main ideas of the story are power, greed, and what happens when you make choices. Moral duty, personal goals, and the disappearance of a powerful woman all affect each other, as shown by the Judge's never-ending search for the truth. The book makes you think about how things like privilege, lying, and loyalty affect our lives and choices. This book is interesting for two reasons: the mystery is hard to solve, and the characters' lives are in danger. 

Davis's writing is sharp, clear, and interesting. It combines a fast-paced story with well-written dialogue and vivid descriptions. The structure flows smoothly between investigation, suspense, and character reflection, which makes the story both exciting and easy to follow. It can be hard for new readers who haven't read the other books in the series to keep up with all the subplots, but the book is still a mystery in and of itself.

Things that stand out are Little things that suspects do, tense conversations with them, and sudden turns that change both suspicion and point of view give the judge clues. People read Davis's stories while they're rushing to find the answer because he knows how to build tension and characters in a deep way.

In the end, The Summit House Murder is a smart, well-made mystery that makes you think about people and how society works while also being fun to read. Davis MacDonald tells a story that is smart, exciting, and satisfying. This book is a must-read for mystery fans who like a detective who is both smart and determined.
