Fun! Not as good as the 2nd installment, but it was still entertaining. Dragged a bit in the middle, and I felt kept in the dark at the beginning. Ends with a bang! I would love to have my handwriting analyzed!

I enjoyed this book from start to finish, well written and nicely narrated, it had a good flow and the plot was easy to follow and interesting. Some great characters in the book, not all of them likeable, by design, but all described well so that I could visualise them. I didn’t work out until near the end who the killer was.

Part of this series’ appeal is that while it deals with a forensic science this is a small part and not the entire focus of the story and the details are described in a way that the layman can understand, not bogged down in the gobbledygook that some forensic books seem to feel is vital but which goes way over the heads of many readers. Kudos for that.

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.
