Although I'd watched and enjoyed 'Wire in the Blood', this was my first Val McDermid novel. I liked the way the author skillfully drew us into the idea that two seemingly isolated cases - one more than 20 years old and the second much more recent, were in fact related. The first half of the story was intriguing, but thereafter disenchantment set in! I'd worked out the rest of the story and the second half of the book was merely padding. The final disappointment was the finale: a real anti-climax! Sorry to say that when I closed the final cover I was not left with any sense of satisfaction.
Just what I was looking for: a plain and simple brandy glass! Nothing exceptional, but good value and delivery was excellent. Would recommend to anyone looking for a 'no frills' snifter.
I bought this for my grandson to use on his new phone, as I thought it would give the phone that extra bit of protection. This it has done, so can certainly confirm that the item is fit for use. Once ordered, the item was very quickly received, so no complaints in that area. To sum up: everything as it should be!
