Review in English, as read the English version. Für deutsche, die deutsche Übersetzung als ebook (evt. auch andere Formate) ist deutlich herabgesetzt. Weiss nicht, ob das von Dauer ist. Nice, slow burning mystery, with an ending like a Gordian knot solved. Well, not for all of them. The characters are very well written. A few main POV-Chapters, so you get a feel for each of them, but some may not like the varying POV?! Set in the UK, and feeks like it! Gifted the German translation as an ebook when I saw it was quite reduced in price, to my mother, after finishing a third of the english ebook. Even with a few tears shed, this might just be right up her alley. In the end, I was surprised by how many died in the book, for a mystery quite a lot. Tis' XMas season, so 5 stars it is, and highly recommended from me. Will certainly read more books by this author. And also looking forward to the series, as this is being filmed as a TV-Series by Netflix with the author as producer.

The ladies...

...es macht einfach Spaß sich von dieser Reihe berieseln zu lassen, man identifiziert sich sofort mit dem ein oder anderen Charakter und manche Situationen sind derart urkomisch beschrieben, dass man das Buch weglegen und sich die Lachtränen wegwischen muss.
