A review by basilf
The Last Temptation by Val McDermid

3.0

Not sure about this book. I felt that the awful fate suffered by Carol was brought on by herself going to Tony's apartment instead of remaining totally in her undercover persona. Similarly, Tony gets himself into trouble by going out on his own to track down the serial killer. He's an academic, not a detective.

As I like to read a series of novels in the order they were written I'll happily go on to The Torment of Others but I didn't find The Last Temptation as good as the first two books.
