[Mary Lou · Rating 3 out of 5]

Its a change for me to read a crime novel by an Irish writer which is UK based rather than set in US.

I was gripped to the point that I kept looking forward to lifting it - to find out what was happening with these characters (and there were lots of them!) This is not a writer who spends loads of time carefully selecting each word and sentence to use, but it still felt elegant and the calmness and likeabilty of Christy Kennedy the detective worked well. Good plot too.

A bit sad because I am coming to the end of this series, only one more to go. It is a nice gentle read.
