In this, the 10th Simon Serrailler crime novel, Simon must engage with his own demons as Lafferton struggles to cope with a series of crimes that threaten the sanctity of hearth and home.

On the face of it DCS Simon Serrailler has had time to recuperate after the violent incident that cost him his arm and nearly his life. He is back in harness at Lafferton CID but is spending his spare time high up in the cathedral roof, making drawings of some medieval angels which are being restored.

Lafferton is apparently going through a quiet patch, so far as crime is concerned, until one night two local men open their front door to a distressing scene. Simon makes a serious error of judgment when handling the incident. The stress of this, combined with the fact that he refused all offers of counselling after the loss of his arm, takes its toll.

In her new role as a private GP, Simon’s sister Cat’s medical and counselling skills are tested by terrible and unexpected events at the homes of two very different Lafferton women. Their unreliable father, Richard, has returned to live nearby, in a luxury apartment for the well-heeled over 60s. It’s not long before he’s up to his old tricks.

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 December 2019

Having enjoyed this series of books I set about Book 10 with great anticipation. I found it very readable but not particularly engaging. There is little in the way of suspense & the main characters lack interest. The book finishes very abruptly, so much so that I thought I had pressed fast forward & was trying to find the rest of the story! It may be that like many series the time has come for it to draw to a close. For me it was wholly unsatisfactory.

Huge disappointment

I was eagerly awaiting another Simon Serrailler book, but what a huge disappointment it was. There was very little story line and no conclusion. A complete waste of money!

Maybe time to let this series go now.

Hard to believe this was written by the same author of the previous Serailler books; disappointing, weak and a very poor story.

A little slow for my taste!

I always look forward to catching up with Serrailler and his family and was pleased that Susan Hill decided to resurrect the series. Unlike some reviewers, I did enjoy Book 9, although I must admit there was not much action. However, I am a little disappointed with the current offering. It ticks the boxes in that there is a lot of information about Simon's family and his current, somewhat difficult, personal situation. I did not find the robbery plot line enthralling because it seemed very slow-moving and did not build tension. I felt that Simon, as the principal and potentially most interesting character, was treading water a lot of the time, drifting between Lafferton and London, between criminals and angels. A little slow for my taste!

Most enjoyable, but I think the earlier Serraillers are better.

This was more of a return to form than the comforts of home. The books are most enjoyable. Serrailler fans will love it of course and continue to long for TV adaptations. A great series of books and a lifetime of important work. She is a national treasure.
