Justice by Faye Kellerman
Before I start the review, I have to admit that this is the first book that was read on my new toy. A few weeks ago I purchased an ebook reader, very uncommon in Australia, and I have been using it almost constantly since then. Years ago I was reading my way through the Faye Kellerman -Peter Decker series, and honestly I forgot where I was up to. So while downloading books for the reader, I picked one that had an unfamiliar plot.
And what a story. The opening pages hint that Decker is off to New York to find a serial killer frightening college students. But no, murders closer to home distract him and keep him thinking. Besides, he is a new lieutenant and has to learn to delegate and trust. And then there is this strange romance between two young musicians. What does that have to do with anything?
This book has more red herrings than most Kellerman novels. But strangely I worked out who-dun-it long before the end. I never work this stuff out. Hmm…
As soon as I opened the next book in the series, it was obvious. I had read it before. That makes it very unfair for me to offer a review. Murder mysteries do not stand rereading, at least not judgement on the second time around
