Duncan Kincaid & Gemma James
review 1: Another in the series of Kincaid/James books and it lives up to those that went before. The action centers around DI Gemma James in this edition as Kincaid is on parental leave looking after their newly fostered, soon to be adopted, little girl. Of course, Kincaid gets involved peripherally in his wife's case.....he just can't help himself.In this story a respected barrister is found trussed and strangled in a cheesy hotel, soon to be followed by the death of a second barrister and the MO is the same. No clues except for some pieces of colored bits of fuzz on each body.....in other words, not much. The story expands to include an up and coming guitarist, his agent who is a friend of James and Kincaid, a mystery woman, and various music industry related characters. This is ... morea complex story but the author slowly pulls the clues together into a very satisfactory conclusion. Deborah Crombie is one of the best of the modern British mystery writers and I would recommend any of her books to the mystery fan.
review 2: Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James #15Duncan is now on leave from work to care for Charlotte. they tried to take her to pre-school but she cried all day. He is worried about his job and misses it very much. When Gemma went back to her job, she got a transfer to a new station. Duncan needs to find a way to get Char in school or find a nanny so he visits Louise. She has sold the house so there will be money for Char's care. But she has some bad news for Duncan.Gemma gets a case where an older man is murdered. By coincidence Duncan and Gemma know some of the people connected with the case. She and Melody are investigating and Duncan helps out because he is bored and he can ask questions w/o actually involving the police since he is on leave. Doug had fallen off a ladder and broke his ankle. He is helping them too. Then another man is murdered and they need to reevaluate all the evidence. The love bug has bitten several people in this story which is wonderful.I really liked this story. I thought I knew way ahead who the killer was but I was wrong! less
