so-so
If you had a list of characters from this novel, without reading a page you may be able to guess 'who done it'. As soon as this character was introduced I had hoped a twist in the story would occur and my own guess would be wrong. Sadly it wasn't to be. The investigation pottered along at a slow pace with no real urgency. As a sideline to the main story, the release of the detective's dangerous father from prison turned out to be a non-event.
