TEDIOUS!! We know that Hugo is a snobbish control freak with mother issues. But to keep digging the same whole in the unread, until now, letters to Imogen are simply boring. The best bits are the police investigation until the author decided to slip in the tiresome divorced wife facet!

At last. It's like a tedious football match. We're halfway through the second half, still 0-0 and both sides boringly plugging along. Then, suddenly they bring on subs that want to prove themselves. The action speeds up, more revelations and it becomes a page turner... Into the last 9% and we're off... The leaden boots are off....

I suppose there is a bit of "Laura" in me. Why have I read more of this total rubbish? Maybe I'm hopeful by that the author will start to progress the plot rather than the execrable of the unposed letters to her friend! Yes. We now Hugo is a control freak who suffers from a mother complex and who uses women. FFS get on with the denouement!!!!

As for Sir Hugo. The control freak needed offing with something far more blunt and sports like. A cricket bat would have fitted his upper class position. A cover drive to the head?

This far in I have considered scrapping it. T The start was promising but the constant background filling in that obviously leads up to the murder is just so bl@@dy annoying. So much so that I have lost any feelings that doormat Laura deserves anything more than the misery being laid out before us in letters to Imogen.
