DCI Fitzjohn and DS Betts are back, and do their "detectivizing," but without any suspense. Despite the poor proofreading, the story moves forward without repetition and fillers, but slowly and a bit wearily. Although family dysfunction is common these days, must it be central to all mysteries? And must there be two murders--old and new ones--in one family?  Paterson can do better.Barbara C.
