falconerreader's review
4.0
If the characters aren't quite as compelling as those in some earlier novels, the mastery of writing nearly compensates. It's lucky for all of us Hill went into writing instead of con artistry, because his ability to plant great big clues while simultaneously distracting the reader from them is unbelievable. A baby's name, the nationality of the guys fixing the broken shower--it's all there for you, cleverly disguised. There was one detail that never got cleared up, which leads me to conclude that either in my mad rush to stay up all night finishing this, I missed something, or that it will pay off in the next book. There's no way he made a mistake. So can anyone tell me--who listened to Dalziel's answering machine?
