This Poison Will Remain by Fred Vargas

3.0

This mystery probably had one of the most fascinating methods of serial killing that I've read. However, I probably shouldn't have started the series here. It's one of those longer mystery series that has a huge cast that must have been around in earlier books. As such, there were interpersonal issues that I just didn't know enough to care about. The other thing is that while the solution had so many interesting connections across fields of study, the cleverness also made the story feel incredibly contrived for me. Still, the author has an excellent imagination and perhaps I will go back and read book one someday.
