Saw this one first on TV. When a young college student is killed Lynley uses the opportunity to be closer to Helen, who is helping her sister after the birth of her third child. Havers is dealing with more issues of her mother's disintegration due to Altzheimers.
While the story did resolve itself quite well, the resolution didn't quite satisfy me and I almost felt that the author was heading in a different direction originally but changed their mind half-way through. I did enjoy the read, it just doesn't stand out as a great detective story for me.
