PI Jackson Brodie is looking into 3 cold cases: an abducted 8 year-old, the unsolved murder of a teen, a girl who was adopted as a baby.

Enjoyable mystery though the author's habit of building up to a revelation which is then delayed by a 20-page switch as we follow another character got annoying. There were some very funny scenes but some of the humour was rather cruel. I will carry on with the series but not just yet.

Ruthiella I love the Jackson Brodie books. ❤️ 2mo
CarolynM Me too @Ruthiella Can‘t wait for the new one! 2mo
rwmg @Ruthiella @CarolynM It's the first Jackson Brodie I've read and I'm enjoying it so far - 120 pages in. I didn't much like the only other one of Kate Atkinson's I've read, it just seemed kind of pointless but maybe I'll give it another go later. (edited) 2mo

“The plot thickens,” he said, and wished he hadn‘t said that because it sounded like something from a bad detective novel. “I think we have a suspect.” That didn‘t sound much better. “My house has just exploded, by the way.” At least that was novel.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ruthiella Love this book (and series!)❤️ 7mo
JanuarieTimewalker13 I love Jackson Brody…I hope I have that right! 7mo

CarolynM @erzascarletbookgasm They‘re in a series of books by Reginald Hill. He also wrote a short series about another detective and some standalone which are pretty good too. The first D & P is 7mo

This book is quite complicated and there were times when I had a hard time trying to remember some of the characters, but the plot was pretty easy to keep track of. I found myself laughing at some of the ridiculous and inevitable coincidences, but there are some very gory and grim scenes that were definitely not funny. The ending is weird, but I think everything turns out OK-ish. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
