★☆☆☆☆
Weeping, unrealistic drivel
God this was overwrought and boring. From a grammar perspective, the authors were all over the place. Verb tense transitions, run-on sentences, lack of knowledge of punctuation were the most notable. (Very poor editing) For a supposedly educated protagonist, this woman was just a mess. The authors describe her as naive AND stupid. I couldn’t imagine her making it out of grammar school or living past her teens. And we’re supposed to believe she’s an MD? AND she has poor impulse control over her actions and emotions. The worst character trait was her ability to cry at the drop of a hat; every other page! For the U.S. readers,the “Britisisms can get in the way, but are usually translatable. The plot was a well worn trope of who was related to the murder victims and why. There were Some nice twists, that should have been obvious to the protagonist if she wasn’t always crying. The obsession with crying and emotional angst took up most of the book. I barely got through the first third of the book before I realized I could skip ahead to the last 10% and not miss anything but her constant crying and stupidity. Her total lack of self preservation was unbelievable. The ending was a typical hammy television wrap up. The only feelings I had for this book were frustration and boredom. Don’t recommend this book, and the only reason I read it was because it was free. I know I would have more fun going to the dentist.
