I truly don't like to give books low ratings and this doesn't get a one star because I still enjoyed the process of reading it...just, you know, not for the reasons I think any author wants. I don't think I like crime procedurals, and this was written at the height of CSI's popularity, and it read like CSI fanfic. Which might be PRECISELY what you are looking for. I can see this being the sort of book someone finds comforting and thrilling and cheesy all at the same time - I just don't think it's quite mine.
I do love reading crime based books set in Boston, though. My husband and I like to guess how many pages it'll be before the new BPD building in Roxbury is described. Was especially charmed by frequent references to "the Back Bay". Never have I read of so many people who just...don't use the T. Ever. Lol.
