Clean Break

Kate Brannigan #4

by Val McDermid (Artist)

Manchester-based, kick-boxing PI Kate Brannigan takes on the hard men of European organised crime as she battles to recover a Monet in a case that stretches love and loyalty to the limits.

Kate is not amused when thieves have the audacity to steal a Monet from a stately home where she’s arranged security. She’s even less thrilled when the hunt for the thieves drags her on a treacherous foray across Europe as she goes head to head with organized crime.

And as if that isn’t enough, a routine industrial case starts leaving a trail of bodies across the Northwest. Unfortunately, cleaning up this mess will mean confronting some truths about her own life…

Die Geschichte selbst hat mir sehr gut gefallen, sie war spannend und hatte überraschende Lösungen bereit. Aber ich habe mich auch immer wieder am Erzählstil und noch ein paar anderen Kleinigkeiten gerieben.
