Edith Hind is a young, beautiful Cambridge graduate who suddenly goes missing.
Her father is a prestigious surgeon with impressive connections, the kind that keep the investigating officers on their toes.
Manon Bradshaw is one of the prime investigators on the case. This story is really about her and her messy love life interspersed with work tales.
This makes for a very disjointed story line that doesn’t quite seem to go together. The buildup is very slow and rather unexciting. The climax is disappointing, almost coming off as a non-event. Overall it was not the worst story I have read and it was well written enough but there are much better stories competing for your time.
BRB Rating: Skip It
