One of a Pair (The Clearwater Mysteries Book 8) Kindle Edition

by Jackson Marsh (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars (167)
‘Love is more than just a chemical reaction.’James Wright, the lead detective of the new Clearwater Detective Agency, faces a pair of unsolvable problems.Life is going well for Jasper and Billy. Young, talented, and falling in love, the two can look forward to a rosy future. But Billy’s master, Colonel Ware, is slowly being poisoned, and if he dies, Billy’s family will be forced to emigrate.It falls to James to investigate the poisoning, but there are no suspects and no motives. Worse, if he fails, a good man will die, and Jasper and Billy will never know the fullness of their love. Enlisting the help of brilliant, but scatter-brained, Dr Markland while mentoring Jasper through the pain of his first love, James embarks on a mystery that takes him from the Greychurch morgue to Ireland, where tide and time wait for no man. It is a journey of discovery, both scientific and emotional.‘One of a Pair’ is a mild-heat, romantic mystery with some comedy, and the eighth book in the ongoing Clearwater Mystery series. It is a follow up to ‘Home From Nowhere.’ You’ll get most enjoyment by starting with book one, ‘Deviant Desire’ and following the famed adventures of Lord Clearwater and his crew of loyal friends as they negotiate the villains and homophobia of Victorian London.

    If you like mystery and intrigue wrapped in a bit of fun and goid humor then this is a series you must read. Cast out by most of society, the guys and gals come together to form their own family.

    I’ve been remiss in not applauding this series of books by Jackson Marsh at the end of each novel. He’s smart as a whip, thorough in his research, very skilled in his development of characters whose personalities remain the same in each story. He reminds me of Charles Dickens.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Dense writing for a complicated tale, with many aspects— some deliciously hidden “of needs” at the time.

    Setting in a long ago English manor with some kind and enlightened Lords - with spice and a mystery to solve. The author fills in so much “context” etc.that it takes strong interest and determination. (Maybe a caution-story May well begin to feel “way too long.”]

    5.0 out of 5 stars What an amazing story
    Reviewed in Canada on September 19, 2020
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I just finished this novel and was completely blown away yet again by Jackson Marsh’s writing style and stories. This has to be one of the best series I have ever read.
    In this, the eighth book in the series, the author focuses and delves deep into the lives and personalities of what were previously some secondary characters and introduces some new characters. It’s a very delightful love story with some very sad moments. As always, there’s a significant mystery and it’s very fast-paced at times. Good luck putting the book down and going to bed at a reasonable hour!!! Lol.
    I recommend this series to anyone. It’s nothing short of brilliant.

    I love all the Clearwater books and recommend them whole heartedly, but this has been my favourite so far. It's a sweet and heart-warming love story, backed by a fast paced mystery. Jackson Marsh masterfully recreates the atmosphere of the time and his thorough research is impeccable. I'm not ashamed to say that this 64-year old man was moved to tears, which is a tribute to the fine writing. I'm now waiting for the last volume in the series and eagerly looking forward to the next phase of the Clearwater saga.

    4.0 out of 5 stars The second of a pair
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 15, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This book is really part 2 of Jasper and Billy’s story. Although the relationship is not as prominent in this book as the previous book “Home from Nowhere”, we get a lot more Billy this time around and a slightly more plausible mystery. In fact this really is Jimmy’s book and his time to shine both at home, wrestling teenage tempers, and out in the field, searching for suspects.

    The last two books have seen a change in writing style for Jackson Marsh. Both books have a little less steam and a lot less violence. The humour and the mystery have not been on a par with some of his earlier books in the series and the characters are somewhat less engaging to read about. They are still enjoyable books but don’t feel as well thought out, or tightly polished, as the previous ones. There are fewer “action sequences” to make your heart race and the plots are a bit less interesting. The other books had strong characters that were developing and growing throughout the story but it felt like the author had run out of ideas of what to do with the main characters in this book. So he decided to relegate most of the Clearwater stalwarts to Larkspur while demoting Thomas to the role of Clearwater Grouch, something Jackson Marsh had set up in the previous book. Jimmy seemed to spend a large amount of his time dealing with teenage angst, constantly pouring oil over the troubled waters of Billy and Jasper’s relationship and his own.

    However, despite those complaints this was still quite enjoyable to read. I liked having Jimmy the main focus of this book and look forward to more adventures with him in his detective moniker. But maybe next time without the shackles of babysitter to slow him down. Jasper and Billy are a couple of interesting additions to this universe but I feel the cute vulnerability of Jasper and the cockney wide-boy of Billy may not be enough to sustain them in future books unless Jackson Marsh adds more facets to their characters to give them more depth.

    I am also up for more interesting investigations like the one we had here. It was not too difficult to guess who the culprit was but it was more challenging to guess “how” it was done. And that is what I like about these books, you learn so much from them. You can forgive some of the clumsy clue droppings by the author when he gives you so much insight into the investigation. There is a lot more than history to learn in these books!

    I do applaud the author for trying to give us something different in these last two books. Some of it worked and some of it didn’t. I liked how the focus has switched to those characters “below stairs” and that we get to see everyone in their day to day lives, especially now that they are no longer running from a psychopathic killer. However, some of the character humour and personality changes didn’t really work for me. I would like to see a return to the old Thomas and for Archer to be more like his old self too. I think he could do a lot more with Mrs Norwood too. There is a lot more suffrage to delve in to as well, though kudus to the author for touching on it here.
