 Back on form March 25, 2008
The last Skinner book was arrant nonsense, but this one is back on form. Following directly after the events of the previous book, this inserts a slight dose of reality into all that silliness.
The real strength of these books has always been the breadth of the cast of characters, rather than just Skinner himself. The whole cast of supporting characters have lives and personalities and grow along with the main characters as the series progresses. It is especially fun to see Proud Jimmy out from behind his desk and investigating a mystery of his own.
 Fantastic December 20, 2007
I was stuck at a train station with nothing to read, made this purchase and was glad I did. This was my first Bob Skinner mystery and it will not be my last.

Classic Jardine. Not the best in the Skinner series, IMO, but really good anyway.
Jardine is underrated. He is often compared to Ian Rankin and I think it should be the other way around,ie, Rankin is nearly as good as Jardine!!
an excellent read September 12, 2006
Thisis just what you would expect of a Skinner novel, four interwoven stories that hold your interest from the very first page. Whilst it does follow on from the previous book, Lethal Intent, it would be just as enjoyable if you had never read any of this series. Your enjoyment is enhanced though if you know the characters I can't wait for the next one.
new Skinner novel August 27, 2006
I thoroughly enjoyed the four interlinked stories. It follows on very closely from his previous book. Although it works as a stand alone book I agreee with the previous reviewer that it helps to know the series.
The plot twists allow for explanations and more detail in several characters lives.
I looked forward eagerly to reading this book and I was glad I had done so.
