Decent murder mystery, oldfashioned unlikeable charaters

3 stars

I've wanted some more recent procedurals, kind of like police TV series, just in book form, this was my first try.

It was a decent book, I kind of liked it, but I didn't like any other characters than the detective really, and it all feld rather old fashioned, the 2001 release must have been a rerelase I think of an older book? At least it felt that way. All in all it was decent, but it was kind of a bit of a drag to get through.
