Jonathan Trott reviewed Dead cert by Francis, Dick.

Great story that has aged pretty well

5 stars

The lack of technology in the tale allows it to be more timeless than it otherwise would have. Good twisty plot and good character development. One line stuck out and should be removed if there is a later edition, but other wise it all held up pretty well.
