Almost 4 stars.

The casual -phobias and -isms are still there, but it was so much better than the previous one.

Having the occasional scenes from the victim's perspective was a good choice, it definetely elevated the whole thing for me.

I have one gripe, though... Where's the cleverness on Davenport's part? Where's the anger? He used to be known for his mind, his web of contacts and his ruthlessness, but he's not not really using any of these feats anymore...

2/5

Even if you don't consider the casual homophobia and mysogyny, this was boring. The villain was very flat, and the investigation boring. Connell could've been an interesting character due to her unique circumstances, but Sandford failed to deliver with her big time.

Zachary Quinto is NOT a good narrator.

I don't like Lundy :(

SPOILER

There was so much emphasis on the true names, but I guess that was just a red herring.

So at this point there's nothing “special” about Davenport, just an average cop, who just gets lucky when it comes to solving a case... Still, it had a good pacing, so whatever, I guess.
