Balford-le-Nez is a dying seaside town on the coast of Essex. But when a member of the town's small but growing Asian community is found dead near its beach, the sleepy town ignites.
Barbara Havers takes the forefront as she helps to solve the murder of a Pakistani man. I liked the fact that George addressed the issue of prejudice (hidden and open) in this story. I didn't care for the seaminess, though. I love the characters in this series and have vowed to plow through the rest of the novels.
Characterization, clue-giving, and atmosphere are all on point.
