Hunter is a novelist at the craftsman level. This means money rather than literary acclaim and recognition of competent storytelling. Turning to his own craft for dramatic conflict. Hunter presents the plagiarism case brought by highly paid hack, Arthur Constantine, against James Driscoll, who can't explain why his one-shot novel (which brought down the bestseller list, BOM, international reprint sales and a major movie) should so closely resemble in conception and treatment Constantine's all but forgotten, failed play. Hunter deals out the story like an expert professional gambler. Flashback and trial get cut in with swift and unobtrusive skill and, although he uses the bottom of the deck to come up with an overdramatic courtroom confrontation to reach a sentimentally satisfying ending, the chances are that this will bluff a readership and possibly a movie. Between the daily trial scenes, contenders and lawyers get fleshed out in flashback--(fleshed as in -pot and temptations of) all the way back to boyhood. It's the bonanza blend, even if it doesn't quite make it--courtroom pyrotechnics and technicalities, millions at stake, men and women and sex and the fine attention to detail that sets Hunter a bit above and apart from his book-into-cash-into movie contemporaries.… (mer)

Enkel men ändå intressant historia som är lite naivt berättad. Men det funkar ungefär som ett bättre avsnitt av en 70-tals tv-deckare. Underhållande för stunden men ingenting som kommer leva kvar i minnet speciellt länge.

En ganska så simpel historia som inte imponerar. Beskrivningen av en heroinists tankar och känslor är däremot riktigt bra. Det håller dock inte spänningen uppe boken igenom.

Jag har två invändningar mot "Det var en gång en liten flicka".
Den utspelar sig i cirkusmiljö, vilket inte är det minsta intressant, tycker jag. De långa beskrivningar av cirkusnummer som romanfigurerna bevittnar är ändlöst tråkiga. Den andra invändningen är att ploten inte är tillräckligt bra. Tidigt får man klart för sig vad som eftersöks... men aldrig blir man nyfiken på hur det ska gå. Det måste väl anses som ett kapitalt misslyckande vad det gäller en roman i denna genre.

Men allt är inte kass. McBains berättande är verkligt intressant. Han har lagt ett pussel där vi får följa fyra olika utredare i deras jobb mot det gemensamma målet. Utredningara är dessutom skilda i tid, men författaren väver mycket snyggt ihop dem. Detta driver på berättelsen, och gör att man trots allt fortsätter läsa. Dessutom, får jag säga, är upplösningen ganska rafflande ändå. Det räddar McBain från att inhösta lägsta betyg.
