It's well-enough put together but the whole thing seems to have crafted according to a publisher's template. There's lots of food and shopping - every item described in loving detail. There's the requisite bonk at about halfway; in the antepenultimate chapter the protagonist is in imminent danger of a messy demise but is saved in the nick of time; there are revelations and a gentle winding down. All straight out of the Ladybird Book of Writing Crime Fiction and a hundred-and-one stock series. All very well, but I don't fit the marketing profile I'm afraid and I find the predictablity tiresome and frustrating. I want something that's going to shake me up, and this isn't my kind of thing.

READ IN DUTCH What is your worst fear? The red room refers to a psychological term. Inside the Red Room can be anything, but it will always be your biggest fear... It seems like an interesting premise for any book. Unfortunately this book focusses more on the actual investigation going on, where our main character is helping out. The story, however, is nothing special and that's a pity. It's still nice to read, but it could have been so much better... nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
