The Last Detective by Peter Lovesey
3.0
I really disliked the main character, Detective Superintendent Peter Diamond, and I don't intend to read any further books in the series because of that. (There are plenty of mystery series out there that don't make me want to bash the sleuth over the head!)
Aside from Diamond, the other characters were interesting and the mystery was reasonably intriguing. The book was definitely helped by the fact that two major sections were told from POVs other than Diamond's - those sections were much easier and more pleasant to read.
Overall, the book was solid, apart from the unappealing MC.
