Another great series by McDermid

1979 by Val McDermid
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am definitely moving onto 1989. This was a very interesting story with great characters.

The character development was key, thus many might object to a somewhat slow pace of the plot. I was quite sad about the murder as both the victim and the murderer made for a very dismal story.

This novel highlighted the year 1979 beautifully, and it was interesting looking back on many aspects of that time. In many ways we have come far, but in others we haven't.

Beverage Pairing: The novel is a bit long, thus alternating with coffee for daytime reading, and a nice Malbec for the evenings.
