As usual, quite gripping and so easy to read. I do recommend (re-)reading the first two books to remind yourself of all the characters and diverse threads which can otherwise get a bit confusing. There are several tiny details which link the three (so far) books, which, once you notice them, can add to the richness of the story.Only on re-reading for example, did I notice that the two old ladies are sitting knitting in the corner in two different pubs!
