The plot is brilliant too. I thought I had it sorted pretty early on and was preparing to feel just a little smug only to discover that I might have been right about something but it was only a very small part of the story. The book's a keeper too - next time around you might know the answer but you'll be able to savour the way it's all done. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
The writing puts me in mind of [[:Category:Ian Rankin|Ian Rankin]], but you might also like to look at [[:Category:Elizabeth Haynes|Elizabeth Haynes]] who has similar talents. You'll also find it worthwhile to look at [[A Kind of Vanishing by Lesley Thomson|A Kind of Vanishing]] also by Lesley Thomson.
