Exciting and a Great Puzzle
I read the 2nd of Mark Douglas-Home's trilogy first and was so intrigued that I wanted to learn how Cal McGill turned his talents as an oceanographer into detecting the answers to mysteries. This book is well written and does not reveal the solution to the puzzle until the end couple of chapters. Cal himself is not only the solver of mystery but an interesting character in this book in himself. The second and third books are not disappointing and I hope Mark Douglas-Home continues with the series.

Won't buy the sequel
I had such high expectations for this book, with a different type of detective. But it just goes on and on, there are too many threads; all the characters, including unfortunately, the hero and the victims, are not very likable.

Fascinating
Unusual and gripping. Best detective novel I have read in ages. If I have a complaint it is that sometimes things happen that stretch your credibility a bit. I will certainly be reading the other 2 novels in this series
