Remain Silent: A Manon Bradshaw Novel by Susie Steiner

3.0

The third and last Manon Bradshaw British Police Detective novel. This one felt less satisfying to me: the focus was on trafficked and exploited Lithuanian workers, forced to do dangerous jobs as near-slaves in contemporary England. The mystery part is dragged out between chapters of Manon grousing and whinging about her personal life. She hasn't gotten MORE likeable as these books progressed, but is certainly a realistic character. (Would I have liked this better if there'd been anything approaching 'Justice' in the end? My weakness for satisfying endings on full display here.)
