A solid mystery. I admit I spent a fair amount of time suspecting the uncle, but the actual killer makes all too much sense when you line all the ducks up in a row. I also enjoyed the character development between Robin and Strike, although Matthew remains a point of distaste from start to end of the book for me.
Graphic: Murder
Moderate: Drug abuse and Violence
Minor: War
