Good but not great

Like the characters but thought it was a bit of a red herring ending. Prefer to be able to puzzle it through

Enjoying this series

I can't think of anything I dislike about this book. I really like a Lorimer story to relax with. The characters are well developed, and although the mysteries are complex, they are easy to stick with. I like the addition of Solly as well. He adds a unique dimension.

Another great Glasgow mystery tale

Alex Gray never fails to deliver a tight, and easy to read mystery, full of suspense and action by believable characters. Recommended for British mystery lovers.
