I really loved this series; a detective series not like others. This time Laidlaw is investigating the accidental death of his brother which turns out to be entangled with various other lives both past and current.
It’s not a “look at the dazzling science of how we captured a criminal”, it’s much more about the why of the crime and the motivations and how really very uncomfortable Laidlaw is with being a police officer at all.
He is obviously the stereotypically wedded to his job maverick detective who drinks too much but gets the job done, but he’s also much more than that too.
