Always nice to find a new series to read. This one, the first of the series, has a lot going for it. The story is complex, with several murders that are somehow related, but it's not apparent how. Add to this the complications added by the fact that the participants and victims are mostly poor, undocumented foreign workers who don't trust the police and can't speak English well, if at all, not to mention victims who don't always remain dead, and you've got a story that will grab your interest to find out what is going on.
It's a good look at a part of society most of us don't usually see much of. The main protagonists, Zigic and Ferreira, are an interesting pair also. They are both police, working in the hate-crimes division, one male and one female. They are pretty different in their methods, so they make a good team, in a way.
If you want to read something a bit different, you might enjoy this one. However, I personally wouldn't recommend this audiobook, as I found it a little hard to understand at times. But that might just be me.
