Diversion
Books

I
found the story difficult to follow at times.
Like most police procedurals there is more than one plot thread that develops. Each thread is interesting but they could have been developed in more detail. There are also so many characters involved and they just aren’t developed and distinct
enough. I found myself frequently going back in the story to clarify who was who
until I was about half way through the book.
Another
thing that irked me was the “locker room” humour that frequently surfaced. Yes, it is most likely a reflection of
the reality in a squad room or a bar, but I can live without sexist and homophobic
jokes, albeit
humour is a personal thing.
For me this
was an - almost but not quite - read.
