I am glad Thomas and Barbara are in charge of solving a bad crime. I have no respect for the Mother who did nothing to help her Daughter, even if she insisting on thinking the biological Dad had the child safely, in order to goad her. What love does a Mother lack, if she isn't terrified that her child might not be in a safe place!? I also loathe it if authors don't give victims a happy ending, especially children.

I dislike multiple viewpoints. I like to follow two book protagonists at the most. Some authors make a few story protagonists work well. I never want inside views of victims, killers, or other external characters. However, I love Elizabeth George and it is not new for her to add everyone's external story scenes, so I am reading through them. At page 162, Barbara Havers has not entered yet, who will bring relief.
