Rating: 4 out of 5

I received this book free to read and review.If you like the all action police stories this is not for you as it is a slow paced novel which has as much strength in the characters as the plot. The plot is good and starts with a simple premise that the name of the killer is known as it must have been someone on the ferry the problem is it could have been any of the crew or passengers. After this it becomes a bit more complicated, it all works out in the end after a number of loose ends and red herrings. I also liked the Welsh setting which I thought the novel brought vividly to life. The characters were well developed and had the right balance between personal influences and the work of a detective.A good interesting read which although slow paced was intriguing as I was drawn into the story and wanted to know what happened next. I have read the previous book in the seriesBrass in Pocket (Inspector Drake 1) (Inspector Drake Mysteries)and will read any more that are published.
