A review by rmarcin
The Finisher by Peter Lovesey

4.0

This is the 19th book in the Peter Diamond series, yet it is the first one I have read. Aside from the relationship between Paloma and Diamond, this book can be read as a stand-alone.
The Other Half, a half-marathon in Bath is the main setting for this novel. When Peter sees a criminal, Tony Pinto, who was recently released from prison in the race, he is concerned about the woman Pinto is harassing. When the woman goes missing from the race, Diamond continues to investigate.
His investigation leads the team to uncover a trafficking ring and the mastermind behind it. The team also discovers the identity of The Finisher.
This was an interesting mystery, very well written.
