text: I purchased this book because of the overwhelming number of reviews that claimed it to be gripping but was disappointed to find it didn’t lure me in nor keep me interested. It's a story about Detective Inspector Fabian, his family and case the police seem unable to solve until Fabian recognises a pattern and thus begins the chase to find the killer. At the same time Fabian is dealing with personal issues. The story ended in a way that sets up a sequel.
