This story was good. By good, I mean solid. It moved, not slowly, but methodically. I appreciated that despite the pace being somewhat laborious in parts; you could always feel of the importance.
I was a bit diasapounted in the ending, but only because I have built a high expectation through a life of creativity and glimpses into the darker parts of life. The climax was so easily explained–in the end–it was almost too realistic. I suppose you have to appreciatr that, and give Hawkins the credit that deserves.
The characters were magnificent. Despite this being a mystery, typically plot driven, Hawkins does a wonderful job making it character driven.
Not bad.
