I read this one after another of Kate Brannigan's adventures, and unlike the other, this book did not grab me from the start. It is actually a bit slow at the beginning, but from the trip abroad things start happening faster and it gets more exciting.
A good finale, too, and full of the dry humour that made me smile more than once while reading.
Still, I prefer Val McDermid when she writes about nasty serial killers and other crime novels!
