Solid if unspectacular police detective novel. Very British, as I had to struggle to understand a few of the colloquialisms, but not a killer at all. I liked the Erika Foster character - tough and determined. The book depended too much on a common failure of these novels - other stupid police focusing on the wrong perp and vehemently squashing any attempt by Foster to find the real killer. Their blindness to the facts went a little too far.

But it all tied up pretty nicely and I will add book 2 [book:The Night Stalker|29073628] to my To Read list, but won't go out of my way to find it.
