Death of a Hollow Man

The best parts of this book are just as good as the first in the series, but it just took far too long to get going for my liking. The buildup to the eponymous death does give a great exploration of all the characters involved, but takes half the book. The second half – the actual solving of the murder and revelation of the killer – is what I came for.
