review 1: After starting the Tony Hill series, I had high hopes for this stand-alone novel. I like the way Val McDermid writes, very down to earth and visual. Sadly, this time I couldn't really get myself to like the characters as much as I wanted to. Don't get me wrong, it's a good story, well written characters who have depths and bring their own background stories. But still...somehow it didn't quite float my boat.
review 2: This standalone mystery took awhile to become likeable. McDermid's writing seemed stiff and monotone for a good 150 pages. There were plot points aplenty, and even more lesbians, but it was hard to warm to the protagonist Charlie Flint until at least halfway through the novel, perhaps because though happily married to a perfectly nice woman, she
... more was considering cheating with a sexy manipulator who made her feel giddy. At some point there was a subtle shift and everything became more interesting and complex. less
