Review title: What is good is brilliant in this but there is some filler.
Product review: This isnt a bad debut. I read it in a week (& I'm very fast). Hard-going in some places becuase Geddes keeps falling into the trap of trying to be a director more than a writer. Don't get me wrong, the stuff is all here - excellent killers, complex characters undergoing development, location work that will make your soul melt, etc. It's all about focusing on what's important. Parts of this nearly sent me to sleep but maybe that was the idea because the wake-up call parts that come after them are pure & delicious Hell!!!Good recipe made by a good chef but he needs to figure out which pots and pans are for what and how hot to cook his stuff. I'm prepared to be generous at 4 stars but offhand, it's 3.5
