I normally enjoy police procedurals but for some reason I just couldn't get into the novel. I did not finish the book despite it being well written

Great story, thrilling plot that I could not put down. Well worth a read, and would recommend to others.

Hardboiled-ish British crime story; extremely cinematic in its description and dialogue (there are lots of "old sons" and "sod yous" to go around). The reader can easily imagine DCI Fox heaving his well-dressed shoulders through London, set to an funky and obscure bit of '70s white guy soul, in a Guy Ritchie film. So, if you enjoy that kind of movie, this should be right up your alley. My only criticism is the sheer numbers of villains on offer here as, by the ending to this briskly paced novel, the strings holding them together are a bit confusing. A very fun time.

Thank you Net Galley. I loved this book. A well written police procedural with plenty of humor. Wonderful. Highly recommended.

A strangely written novel; the language used is staid and stilted making the storyline and characters feel flat and dull.
