Better than the first one, I really love this series. Again it needed to be a bit longer I feel, we needed to spend more time with the suspects, but it had a lot to enjoy. 
I especially like Hugh's relationship with being a policeman and queerness, it's really interesting to read, both if you read it as him not realising yet he's queer or if you think that he does know he fancies men but realised it would clash with his job and decided to try and put it aside to be a policeman.
