I have a theory that a nation's character can be expressed through its detective stories. American thriller usually have lots of blood; Swedish procedurals revolve around bizarre sex and British police dramas often feature unhappy, middle-aged detectives operating in gray, drab cities. That's certainly the case with this book, second in a series. I didn't catch the first and having read this one had no particular desire to continue with the series. Inspector Resnik is middle-aged, depressed at having been deserted by his wife, poorly dressed but also very bright and observant and scrupulously honorable. I can anticipate the way this series will develop. In this book, Resnik has the opportunity to sleep with a gorgeous young realtor who throws herself at him for some unknown reason. Of course, he's unwilling to respond. I guess each volume of the series will feature another mystery solved while Resnik himself grows ever more lonely and tormented. One problem with this book is that nothing very major seems to be at stake. There's some drug smuggling and some burglary but so what? No murders, no blood, no crazed fanatics trying to destroy the world .. so why bother? We see a bunch of honest, British coppers plodding their way through the drab streets of a Midlands city solving a bunch of burglaries? If you don't fall in love with the characters, and I didn't, seems like too much effort to be worth it.
