Oh My! If this is the end of the Enzo Investigations series, it finished strong. Enzo is back investigating a cold case murder, this time of Lucie whose body was found in a lake when the water level dropped due to prolonged drought. This book is the best in a very fine series, but do not read it if you have not read the previous volumes in the series. You will not understand it or know the significance of events. The continuing characters are all back in this volume and their back stories are crucial to the plot and impact of this story. The continuing characters are a strength of the series and I was glad to have them back in full force. Enzo is an interesting character as a Scotsman who has lived in France for 25 years. He is a specialist in forensic science and teaches at a university near Cahors. The premise of the series is that Enzo made a bet that he could use his knowledge of modern forensic science to solve the cold case murders in a book written by Raffin, a journalist. A lot has happened to Enzo and the continuing characters over the course of the series. These books are all fairly fast paced thrillers. In this book, even more than the others, there comes a point where it would be impossible to stop reading. Female characters have been weak link in the series, but that is not as true in this book. I cannot tell more of the plot or it would spoil everything that leads up to the climax. These are not books that will change the world or your life, but they are entertaining and this volume was terrific. This series is one that we pre-order and compete to see who gets to read it first like the books by Martin Walker, Mark Pryor, Paul Doiron, Elly Griffiths, and a few others. The entertainment value justifies the purchase price. We will be sorry if this is the end of the series.
