The Cat Who Walks Through Walls by Heinlein, Robert
Filed under: Sci-Fi | Buy on Amazon
It started out interestingly enough, but it just didn't go anywhere.
The first half had non-stop adventure, with an interesting mystery set up. But the pay off never came as the mystery just got more and more bizarre and you started to lose hope that they'd ever actually explain anything. The second half dissolves into a mess of time travel and plot cheats to the point that the original mystery is completely forgotten (and explained away in a few minutes by a convenient investigation conducted with the aid of time travel).
