2.0

The Alan Banks books are losing their way. Character motivations change to suit the plot, characters (especially of women) are becoming flatter and less believable, apparently meaningful connections between them are forged in a couple of stilted and unconvincing pages. After the genius of [b:Aftermath|377916|Aftermath (Inspector Banks, #12)|Peter Robinson|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174310113s/377916.jpg|1346842] and [b:Friend Of The Devil|989584|Friend Of The Devil (Inspector Banks, #17)|Peter Robinson|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180033217s/989584.jpg|3125167], it is disappointing to have such a humdrum book.
