~ Andrew Barrett opens up a dark and bloody world behind the blue and white crime scene tape
~ Completely surprised by the final plot twist
~ Written by a SOCO about a SOCO so you know it is accurate
~ I've read all the usual suspects - Ian Rankin, Mark Billingham, Peter Robinson, Peter James, Stuart McBride, etc - and was looking for something similar. I wasn't disappointed with Andrew Barrett.
