Peter Decker is an asshole in this one. An absolute sea of red flags. He's violent to suspects, cruel to witnesses, and he gives Rina the silent treatment and destroys a few of her things.

The mystery itself is good, if graphic. It's great to see so much use of dental forensics. I'm very interested to see if Kellerman manages to redeem Decker in any way, or if she sets Rina up for a lifetime of making excuses.
