A story of three different crimes that occurred around Cambridge between 1970 and 1994. The first one is the disappearance of a three year old girl named Olivia, the second is the tragic motiveless killing of a lawyer’s 18 year old daughter and the third one is the murder of husband by his distraught wife. Jackson Brodie is a private investigator who comes to be involved in solving the never closed case of Olivia, finding the killer of Laura, the lawyer’s daughter and to search for the missing daughter of the woman who murdered her husband. This is a mystery that was easy to engage and read in just a few days. I liked a lot about this mystery; the negative for me was the degree of sexual content. It’s a complicated set of murders that don’t really seem to have any solutions and then bits and pieces start to come out. It’s filled with many twists and surprises and expected and unexpected resolutions.
