review 1: I've now read all four is this series back to back but I'm not sure where this series can go in this format. I love the character of Tony McLean and the writer's portrayal of this man. However in this the 4th book the supernatural element unfortunately belittles what would be an excellent detective scenario. Then there is the so called romance with Emma that is actually going nowhere. I look forward to reading further books by this author but hope he loses Emma and the supernatural.
review 2: I've been really enjoying these books, I quite like the supernatural twist on the detective stories and I really like Tony McClean. I didn't like the way this one ended. Great storyline, edge of you seat stuff just like the previous books but the ending was disappointing.
... moreI just felt that Oswald ran out of ideas, like he'd brought in the devil as a baddie but then thought...hang on a minute, how is Tony McLean going to beat the Devil?... We're supposed to believe that this truly evil, powerful and dangerous beast just walks away and leaves town after being turned down and told off? Maybe it won't be the last we see of Mrs Saifre but it just felt a bit rushed. less
