This book is a departure from Elizabeth George's usual cast of characters. Barbara Havers does not appear until the last page of the story. Instead of solving a mystery, this story provides the background story about the individuals involved in the shooting that occurs at the end of her previous novel. George provides a richly detailed picture of the gloomy existence of the individuals who eventually collide with Lynley's family in the tragic shooting of his wife.
