This is a wonderful series in that it is serious and often humorous at the same time, i.e. the same page if not paragraph. What makes it even more compelling is that you feel you are reading about real people whom you've come to like, if not admire. Well, except for some of the not-so-good ones you read about over several books. But I think it was in the book before this one that one not-so-good character turned into an evil criminal.

You also have to keep your wits about you as the people you suspect are usually red herrings. In fact, Cotterill often surprises you with the identity of the villain, except you know you should have seen that coming. And by the time I'm 75% through one of these books I can't put it down in my desire to see how it ends.

Many of the books in this series are WLed. Sorry, I can't post this one, as it needs to go back to the county library.
