I love this British police procedural series featuring DI Tom Thorne, but his one missed the mark for me. THe story about London's homeless community and veterans of the Gulf War failed to keep my interest. However, the character of Tom Thorne and his fellow policeman are very well developed and Billingham's writing brings London to life for me. He writes very well, and, although the previous installment was also somewhat disappointing, I plan to continue reading the series.
