So I feel stupid about being so chuffed with this one but I pegged this one in about the first 20 pages. 

Not sure why, but I just knew. Maybe because the incest trope is so common in UK murder mysteries. *shrugs* 

Either, quite liked the possibility of guessing this one. Didn't love the narration about Wexford and the little Dutch girl. There were some very weird statements in there, which make me uncomfortable.
