I’m not going to continue this series.
The characters were fine, some worse then others. Though there were none I liked. This book had a plenty of actions that made you go WHY WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT! The plot was pretty good. I enjoyed the crimes, I think I just don’t like police procedural and there was ALOT of that. It really slowed it down, whereas the actual crimes I enjoyed and the guessing the direction. The last few chapters where all of my questions were answered was great. Just the rest of the book was a struggle, if you like a police procedural this is probably the series for you.

I like this novel much better now that I've finished it than I did while I was still reading it. Being my first DS McRae novel, expectations were high. The characters got to me after a while. Many of them are annoying and the protagonists relationship with them is a bit putting off. The main plot is engrossing enough and the side plots, although not riveting, are not bad. Good read for a lazy afternoon but I won't remember anything about it in a month. I think I just don't like McRae, the person!
