The book intensely demonstrates police work from the moment a body is found, keeping note of the date and time: 2nd to 23rd September 1988. The story goes back and forth between DCI Flint and other characters, as well as dates 1986 to 1988. The events in both timelines are chronological and 1986 soon catches up to 1988 when the criminal is arrested. Readers already know who the criminal is so only have to follow the investigation and history, able to get insight on all events. I lose interest in the police investigation, and the only character I care about is Jessica. I also don't follow the relevance of the first death. The interview with the criminal is good because the narrative explains further into his state of mind and reveals a twist.
