Sam Sheppard has had her baby, been on maternity leave and is now back at work trying juggle life with a baby in tow. She is given an old case to look at and see what she can make of it while she eases back into work. It's the death of a priest who was kill on the steps of his church 25 years previously but remains unsolved.
Thus begins a slow drawn out story. The first half just dragged with very little happening. In the end I felt I wasted my time with this book as the explanation of all that happened just does gel with me. So many people seemed to know, or suspect, what happened that it would have been impossible to keep it secret.
I didn't enjoy this and was disappointed compared to the other books in the series.
