There was a lot going on in this novel: Tom is facing an enquiry over an injury to a suspect he was chasing; he is asked to assist in a cold case after the body of his first girlfriend is discovered; he has two suspicious deaths he is meant to be investigating; and then later a schoolgirl goes missing.
I found the thread relating to the cold case very dull, and started skimming the italicized sections set in the past early on - far more information than I needed about Tom's first sexual encounter. The solution to the main case was a bit 'out there', but there was a lot of good misdirection along the way. I felt the missing schoolgirl strand could have been better developed - it was mostly off-page and seemed tacked on. And as for the inquiry, I kept forgetting all about it.
