Good mystery that leaves you wondering, what next?

This book had a very powerful start with 5 people shot at a wedding. The killer is announced early in the book but it just doesn't feel right for Banks. After a lot interviews, Banks is now sure that the killer is still on the loose. I found the plot very interesting and the twists kept the pages turning. Robinson is an expert in his characterizations as his characters do feel like real people to me. I love his attention to detail and get a great feeling about the locations of his books. The music references throughout is one of the best features of an Inspector Banks novel. I love that Jenny is back and Annie is having a hard time with this. Can't wait for the next book in order to see how this plays out. I would highly recommend this series to those who love police procedurals. Best to read the books in order as they build one upon the other.
