A review by felinity
Une victime idéale by Val McDermid

4.0

It's been a while since I read this series, so it was a refreshing change to revisit Paula's and blunt honesty, Tony's social ineptness despite his incredible insights, and Carol's honest emotion. Obviously this is a book about terrible crime, a serial killer, but the real story is about grief and the rawness of grieving, the struggle of resolution and how people deal - or not - with the aftermath of crime and loss. In short, the bits fiction rarely cover. And McDermid does it well.
