Title: Transcends Genre
Review: This is one of those novels that has a mystery at its core but which really transcends the genre to stand on its own. McDermid has created living, breathing characters whom you care about beyond the solution to the mystery. She also has a great sense of atmosphere. The figid climate of the territory in which her detective George Barrett works felt real. I also thought she caught the time (early 60's) right--not too much detail, but just enough to put you there. This book will you have you turning pages in suspense at several points, but when you are finished you will not have the so what, empty feeling of so many crime novels.
