Synopsis from Amazon:

'Kate Brannigan is truly welcome. Hot on one-liners, Chinese food, tabloid papers and Thai boxing, she is refreshingly funny' Daily Mail Kate Brannigan, feisty Manchester-based PI, is back, investigating the bizarre case of the missing conservatories. Before Long she's up to her neck in crooked land deals, mortgage scams, financial chicanery -- and murder. But when a favour for a friend puts Kate's own life in danger, bizarre is not the first word she thinks of...

Thankyou Molyneux, this is one from my wishlist.

Reserved by SwanofKennett before I even got it home, so likely to be next on my TBR list!

Very enjoyable. This has been my favourite novel featuring Kate Brannigan to date, though I still prefer Val McDermid's other work.

Thanks for thinking of me for this Molyneux, it'll be off on it's travels again shortly.

Light and enjoyable romp with Manchester PI Kate Brannigan. This is only the second book in the Brannigan series and seems still to be a bit formative and clunky. You just know, for example, that the solicitor called Cheetham is going to be bent, there's no sense of irony about the name.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

I'll leave this somewhere in the waiting area, probably with the magazines.
