The Waiting Room - the 4th book in the to feature DCI Marc Craig and his team at
Belfast Combined Crimes Unit and the best yet.
The story begins with the
discovery of a young girl's body left hanging upside down and mutilated on a
church altar. The girl is the daughter of a diplomat. On investigation the team
discover a trail of depravity that reaches to some of the most powerful people
in the Belfast area. Can DCI Craig and co. find and stop the members of the
Library Club (it'll become clear!) before any more girls are killed?
Once
again this is a very well told tale by Catriona King and the crime is by far the
most unsettling. As in the previous books in the series what sets this apart for
me is the team working on the case - they have lives outside the CCU and are
people you can care about - a prime example being one of the team (I'm not
saying who - SPOILERS!) has something going on that you are aware of but the
details are not revealed until later on in the book - and this actually had me
concerened for the character in question.
As I've said, this book is the
darkest in the series, the criminals are the most despicable of people and the
book is the best so far - MORE PLEASE!
