On examining the the body Detective Inspector Hamilton determines he has been murdered, and so the hunt is on for the Holyrood Strangler, aided by Detective Sergeant Dickerson. A well-written mystery with good developed characters. An excellent start to a new series which I look forward to reading. A NetGalley Book I thoroughly enjoyed Edinburgh Twilight. Historical crime is not my normal genre but do enjoy police procedurals. This book has been on my kindle a couple of years but pleased I finally got round to reading it. I have the next 2 in the series and look forward to reading them. Great scene development, and interesting main character for later no reviews | add a review
