Now
this is a series I shall be looking up to read the earlier novels. This
is number four in the series and if the others are half as good they
will be excellent reads.
The main characters, DCI Fenwick and his
friend Inspector Nightingale, are both ambitious, have all the inner
politics of the police force to deal with and Inspector Nightingale is
female. Fenwick is told to keep clear of Nightingale by a misogynist
boss, Nightingale has to put up with some anti-female behaviour.
Elizabeth
Corley gives us two interesting 3D characters and then a plot which is
full of twists and surprises. It's also more original than many police
procedural plots can be. Fenwick and Nightingale are working on
different problems which eventually tie together and it is not an easy
task they have as proof is going to be difficult to find.
Readers
who enjoy British police procedurals will enjoy this and anyone who
likes a satisfying read will get great pleasure from the ending.
AND a big thank you to all those lovely readers who bought my novels in the recent e-book sale.
