Ooh, an early Ann Cleeves book, that might be interesting… I’m just writing this note to myself to remind myself next time I think that again! This just bored me, I couldn’t make sense of the characters, why George was called on to investigate the death, what the issue was. There were some good characters but I found the whole thing jumbled up and the bird watching scene which I’d expected to find interesting didn’t really come to life for me at all. Sorry! I don’t usually review DNFs but I wanted to leave myself a note to remember that I didn’t enjoy this.
