The long call / Ann Cleeves

I collected my reserved copy with high expectations of a good read. However, disappointingly, I appear to go against the majority of press etc reviews. A dull and not very engaging new inspector, some clumsy writing, and a very slow pace. I actually went to the last chapters half way through as I didn’t have the energy to take the long way round to find out what was happening! I’ve enjoyed the Vera and Perez books hugely. This one seemed to have been written by another person.
