Sad but realistic

I definitely enjoyed this book. Really sad though because this happens more than we know. We read and hear about this happening all over and I for one will never understand how anyone can hurt a child. My only complaint while reading was about Jay and the fact her being pregnant and the alcohol she was consuming on more than one occasion. We have all heard of the dangers of drinking alcohol while expecting and I was shocked they mentioned numerous times of her drinking. Yes, that is my own opinion and while I realize the seriousness of what the book was about this did bother me. ( )

DCI John Blizzard is called to Hafton city cemetery as a grave has been desecrated - a grave of the victims of an unsolved case from fifteen years ago. Using this act as a pretext, Blizzard opens up the cold case as he is convinced that the father is the guilty person. But this case only scratches the surface of the crimes in the town.
An interesting and enjoyable well-written crime story with some believeable characters.

Despite touching on quite a grim topic, this is a well-paced and enjoyable read. Blizzard is the kind of detective I like: he has a heart but keeps it close to his chest (ahem). He sees an opportunity to solve a crime that has troubled him for years, but that takes him into dangerous waters. The victims are mostly dead and buried, but the perpetrators are going to feel the long arm of the law. ( )
