5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious, April 13, 2008
It's a rare and wondrous thing to read a mystery novel that has you laughing out loud over and over again. WHile you're anxiously following along the plot twists and turns (Hill uses a couple of devices that I had no trouble following) I would find myself laughing uproariously (sp?) to the musings of Andy Dalziel and his flippant responses to pompous boors. Worth every minute and every cent.

4.0 out of 5 stars Multiple narrative voices give the story many angles, May 3, 2008
By Carina Mørch-storstein (Trondheim, Norway) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Engaging crime novel. I liked the different narrative voices: superintendent Andy Dalziel's recorded voice, Charley Heywood's emails and the omniscient narrator who suddenly appears towards the end (+ the final recorded voice, won't reveal who that is here).In the first third of the book, I found the pace was a little slow. In fact the first crime happens only after ca. 200 pages. However, after that, it picks up considerably and you won't be able to put it down. And at times it is very funny! Good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars He's Back!, November 2, 2008
It is thought that you can't keep a good man down, and that is what has happened with this book. Fat Andy Dalziel is back, and although he is physically not recovered from his close brush with death in the last book, his mind is still as razor-sharp as ever. In true Hill fashion this book is hilariously funny, but also poignant and touching as well. I read a lot of British police procedural series, and I have a lot that I really enjoy, and continue reading each time as new books come out, but the Dalziel and Pascoe series is by far my favourite. The writing is extremly intelligent, the characters are so realistic, and each book is very different from the others. The mysteries are very tricky, and believe me the series does not grow stale at all even though this is the 22 book in the series. Andy finds himself right in the middle of a family drama when he retires to a sea side convalescent home to recover from his grievous injuries. He gets drawn up into the action, and his remarkable intellect pushes him on untl he solves the mystery. He doesn't get drawn up into all the red herrings that even infallible Wieldy and perceptive Peter Pascoe fall for. I for one am so glad that Dalziel is back. He is a remarkable character, and one of my very favourites.
