A Murder of Crows (Ulverscroft Large Print)

Rating:
Summary: Weird but compelling
Review: I picked this mystery up because the heroine, quite unusually, shared my name. It was not a nice comfy intellectual puzzle. The hero is terrifyingly good at his job, killing people, yet you find yourself admiring his skill and efficiency. You cannot read this book (these books) without examining cultural and personal attitudes towards violence. It can make you very uncomfortable with yourself. There is definely some kind of unholy fascination, as I own three of hers.
