Title: "Needle Work" needs work...
Product review: I was disappointed in this book, although it had the potential to be a good book, it was spoiled by the author's style of writing. To me, it's almost like he's trying to revive the 1940s detective story in the first few chapters. I especially disliked the use of phrases like "flashed the tin"--where the heck did that come from? It wrecks the author's credibility, makes him and the police look downright silly, makes light of the fact that a woman had died, and treats it all like it was a B movie or a cheap detective novel. Wait a minute, let me check...nope, it says "true crime" on the spine.... Though I must give credit where it's due, once you get past the first few chapters, it becomes more serious, realistic, and gets down to business.
