15th in the series with Duncan Kincaid of Scotland Yard and Gemma James of the Metropolitan Police. Crystal Palace is the place setting for this one. A barrister is found murdered in a very compromising position, and his last known contact was in a pub arguing with a musician. And then, another one... Lots of coincidence here as it seems Kincaid, James, and their team are acquainted with almost everyone involved in the case. I like all the subplots dealing with the characters' lives. What I don't like is having all the bits about the past set in italics. I find it uncomfortable to read multiple pages in italic. However, that's a formatting issue and nothing to do with the quality. New readers need to start closer to the beginning of the series.
