Another decent instalment in the Peter Decker - Rina Lazarus series. This time, Peter responds to a distress call when he’s off duty and gets tied to the case. There’s lots of twisted family drama involved in this story. Nothing over the top and unbelievable, but the elements of jealousy, emotional trauma, strained relationships etc are all present in a neatly crafted manner. No high octane chases and no unbelievable serial murders.
Once again, there’s lots of character development in the story, and a medium focus on the plot, which I have come to enjoy about this series.
There’s elements of Peter’s fatherhood with his daughter, unborn child and step-sons touched upon to shed more light on his paternal characteristics, which I think is a good and natural transition in the series.
If you liked the previous books in the series, I think this is definitely worth a read.
