This Poison Will Remain by Fred Vargas
3.0
Commissaire Adamsberg is convinced that three deaths, the result of venom from the recluse spider, are connected, but support for his theory is lacking. Can he win over his colleagues and solve the case?
I had a hard time getting through this book; the format made it difficult to follow the dialogue and become immersed in the story because there wasn’t a paragraph break between speakers. This Poison Will Remain is the 11th book in a series, so I’m sure I was missing a lot as I read as well. The story didn’t really grab me, plus it kind of sucks when your favorite character turns out to be the killer. I’m not saying this was a bad novel, it just wasn’t for me.
