This, like its predecessor in the series, is a genuine crossover literature, examples of which are all too rare. The police procedural aspect of the plot is convincing but the real focus is on the impact of the crime (and, more generally, of untimely death) on all involved. As a result a wider range of characters is examined more deeply than one would expect from a standard police procedural. This more than makes up for Hill's refusal to deliver the standard neat resolution of the plot. Although Hill's characters are examined closely at times, I find the depiction uneven in depth and not always seamlessly embedded in the narrative, leaving me slightly distanced at times. None the less a compelling read. 26 March 2018
