I like Anthony Horowitz books and this one was pretty different to the others I've read.
Well described characters are this author's strong point and this book does not disappoint. This is a slow-burn mystery. It seems to be based on a true story, though it was difficult to understand whether the elements (letters, historical articles etc.) which were added in, were actually 'real' or part of the fictional book (I found this lack of clarity annoying, though perhaps it was my lack of understanding??). The story follows a writer as he tracks the work of Detective Hawthorne. Hawthorne is aloof and a bit odd. The murder mystery was interesting enough and clear enough, and there are plenty of potential suspects. The other interesting point is the fictional writer in the book seems to be styled on Horowitz himself, for instance - his name, where he lives, his experience of living in London and working as a famous writer etc. This definitely added interest for me and might even have been a bit more interesting than the actual mystery.

So far, it's one hundred percent five stars. Wow - I'm stunned! Thank you :) (Early Bird pricing is still available on this title) A clever killer plots to hunt down successful women.
DI Luc Callanach, new to the Edinburgh team, takes the case. He has French and Scottish blood and has come back to Scotland after he was accused of a crime at Interpol. The case is violent and brutal and several scenes pull no punches, including one at the end of the book that had me reeling. We get to know the killer up close and see how he operates and how he thinks. We see how the police team are several steps behind him, despite all their efforts to understand the evidence and the forensics. I liked Luc and his colleague, Ava. Not everyone welcomes high-flying Luc and his team have to learn to work with him and him with them. Great characters and a great story. No cheap tricks. This one is definitely recommended.

Then the death of an elderly woman and her daughter. How are these cases connected and what is motivating the killer? DI Kim Stone is struggling to hold it together, and it seems the killer has the upper hand... Why are the team struggling? It's not only the case, it's the loss of their colleague DS Dawson (killed in the previous book). Meanwhile, DC Stacey has taken on an investigation of her own. She's been dumped with their new team member, someone who can never replace Dawson and she's looking into the case of a missing school girl. The team dynamics in this one are great. There are plenty of poignant moments as the team struggle to carry on without Dawson. Some of them welcome the new team member and others turn against him. The crimes are as gruesome and twisted as usual in this series and it will keep you guessing until the end. Another great book from Angela Marsons.
