An ending you never thought of
A very forgettable book. There was no crispness to the characters even though the author threw every stereotype into the storyline. Perhaps I read too much crime mystery and need to change my preferences.
If you love procedurals, British especially, this is terrific.
Wow. This was a fabulous book and I look forward to reading more of this authors work. It didn’t hurt that I had lived in north Wales regardless I Would have still given it an outstanding review!!
Love
I couldn’t get interested in it.
