A review by saltycorpse
Force of Nature by Jane Harper

4.0

I'm really enjoying Jane Harper's books, and this is another good murder mystery. These books are not overdone, so far there hasn't been any ridiculous 'twists' and they progress in the way an actual investigation would for the most part, which I appreciate. I also like that Falk (Harper's lead detective) isn't your normal crusty old homicide detective breaking all the rules - he's actually in financial crime, but because money so often is tied up in murder, it legitimately makes sense he ends up assisting investigations. I also am happy that Harper didn't fall into the trap of making Falk fall in love with his female partner, but instead despite sexual tension (apparently on Falk's part) he is still a good friend, professional, and supportive of her being in a serious relationship.
