A book club choice. I do believe the first time we have read a crime thriller. Much more of a police procedural than I imagined. None of the repetitive violence that I thought might be gruesome. There are some pretty obvious set ups along the way, connections that anyone was unlikely to miss.
The story does move forward at a relentless pace, even with some interesting and unexpected diversions into the background of criminal profiler Tony Hill. In the end I was pleasantly surprised how this was a satisfying change from my usual fiction.
PS The general feeling from members of book club at our Zoom meeting last night was less than enthusiastic.
