Just One Evil Act by Elizabeth George

4.0

---

Part of me wants to give it just 3 stars because of how many times I thought, "WHEN is this case going to be OVER?" It is such a brick of a book. The case keeps changing shape just when you think they're about to solve it, over and over and over. And I want to smack Barbara upside the head, but I guess that's not unusual. Dickens may have been right when he said you shouldn't write insanely long mysteries because the suspense just can't be kept up for that long.
