4.0 out of 5 stars up to standard, 12 Jan 2003
This book has kept well up to the standard of Kate Ellis's previous Wesley Petersen books which I have read; I really enjoy the style of investigating the modern murder whilst at the same time parallelling it with a long ago murder. Also it is interesting to see how the characters of Wesley, his wife, Neil and Gerry are devloping throughout the series; in this book we learn a little of Gerry's past which was unknown even to Wesley; the story was gripping and although I had begun to suspect the twist I picked the wrong culprit!
