shadedelight 's review for:

Just One Evil Act by Elizabeth George

4.0

---

I have not had a good reaction to George's books after she killed off (you know)in What Came Before. I hated that book and how senseless it was and how utterly hopeless the protagonists were. I also didn't really like the books after that, although there were a few that seemed to take us back to Lynley and Havers as they were. Finally, in this book, we have come back to Havers and Lynley and it was a fantastic read. Havers is stunningly absorbing, again, and Tommy is getting his groove back. The work George put into the writing of this book must have been torment. For the first time in a while, I think she has crafted a book worthy of the early ones. Hope the next is up to this one.
