I enjoyed the story, although the prose is fairly pedestrian, perhaps more so because the narrator more or less reads in a monotone. It is a police procedural, with little revealed until the conclusion and then, not so much by the detective's efforts so much as a person'surprising sudden confession. Minor spoiler: This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. I somehow received a signed copy of this book from the Author, maybe as an Early Reviewer and when I finally got around reading it I found it most enjoyable.I intend to read the rest of her books. I received this novel through the Member Givaway program with Library Thing and had not read the previous books in this series. I found the action a little slow at first – isn’t that always the way? It soon held my interest, however, as the story developed and I began to ‘feel’ the characters. I wouldn’t call it a cliff hanger but it is one of those stories that plays with your sleuthing and you soon realize that there is little likelihood of your figuring out who did it. When you reach the end, you realize just how unlikely that really was. I can definitely recommend this novel to the ‘Who did it’ lover and although not my favourite genre, I have to admit that I did enjoy the story. no reviews | add a review
