The opening of this book was nothing short of spectacular. Can't lie, I was hooked. Dark brooding forensic photographer on his way to a local crime scene, the setting matched his mood just so much win. After that, it slowly went down hill.
The main character picks up a clearly distraught man at the scene, obviously close to the vic, and takes him lunch which is fine. But then it just didn't hit the levels of heavy the book seemed set up for. We've got a lead character here that's brooding over his life as an orphan, talking to a complete stranger who just lost his best friend about well, stuff. I was just waiting for that emotional waterfall to happen but it didn't quite get there.
