Another devilish plot to keep the reader guessing!
I like the characters in this mystery series. DI McLeish is tough but likable along with Davidson. Each book can be enjoyed as a single, but the plots develop better if read from the first Fatal Blow to Number 7.

Murder mystery around finance. Has inconsistencies.

It's well-written and characterised, but the solution to the mystery is a bit of let-down.

When one of the shareholders in a popular London restaurant is found dead, the other partners come under suspicion. Fortunately, one of them knows Francesca Wilson, the newly pregnant (again!) wife of Scotland Yard detective John McLeish. Francesca's whole musician family is on hand, as brother Tris is singing in the nearby opera house. Another death seems to solve the crime, in John's opinion, but then attacks on the staff continue. Neel is reliably delightful, and writes beautifully about food.
