In the process, there are enough twists in this book to keep mystery fans engaged. It is refreshing to join along with Mr O'Loughlin who has a credible background in something different than detective science as he attempts to unravel the strands of a perplexing murder.


Although imperfect, this psychologist is capable of some deep insights into human nature giving us a different perspective than the traditional hard ass cop protagonist. He makes some bad choices and they come back to haunt him tenfold in this mystery/thriller set in England. (I'm following a few of those) Instead we have Joseph O'Loughlin who is a flawed psychologist. The good news is that there are eight more books to look forward to in this series that is not driven by another flawed detective. This was a rewarding accidental discovery for me.
