A review by mfeibel
Our Lady of Pain by Elena Forbes

4.0

I liked this second Barnes Murder Squad book. Not as much as the first, but I liked it. I was worried the ending was going to be too similar to Die With Me in regards to Donovan's character but it ended up going another way.

Honestly, my biggest issue with the book was that Tartaglia spent a disturbing amount of time fantasizing about murder victims and how he might have hooked up with them when they were alive. Too much focusing on the attractiveness of the corpses made him seem creepy.

Also, what happened with him and Liz (who btw I totally thought was a transgender woman, there were so many references to how masculine she was)?
