Still Life by Val McDermid Book Summary

A Scottish police inspector deals with forgeries and false identities in a new murder mystery in the “superior series” (The New York Times).

When a lobster fisherman discovers a dead body in Scotland’s Firth of Forth, DCI Karen Pirie is called into investigate. She quickly discovers that the case will require untangling a complicated web—involving a long-ago disappearance, art forgery, and secret identities—that seems to surround a painter who can mimic anyone from Holbein to Hockney. Meanwhile, a traffic accident leads to the discovery of a skeleton in a suburban garage. Karen has a full plate, and it only gets more stressful as the man responsible for the death of the love of her life is scheduled for release from prison, reopening old wounds just as she was getting back on her feet.

From a Diamond Dagger Award winner and multiple Edgar Award finalist, Still Life is a tightly plotted mystery featuring an investigator “whose unwavering confidence is tempered by a strong dose of kindness and sense of justice” (Booklist).
 
“There are few other crime writers in the same league.”—Maureen Corrigan, The Washington Post

Review of Still Life. Loved Karen. Although I did kinda know where the one case was going the getting there was interesting. The characters are richly drawn. The actions believable. I really prefer Northern European writers to American writers because the polis think rather than resort to gun battles & car chases. Thoroughly enjoyed Still Life & am looking forward to reading more by Val McDermid.

Still Life. Outcome predictable a mile out, shallow character development, and some whopper typos along the way.

Too much of everything.. Maybe I was just tired, but there seemed to be too many characters, too much convoluted plot, too much travel. I just did not enjoy it as I have every other McDermid novel.

Good read, though long. Great characters marching through another Val McDermid effort. Plot was interesting but plodded along by the end. This is not unusual for this author.

Cracking good mystery.. Hard to get to know characters in some instances because the introductions aren’t very clear. I got to page 150 or so and started all over because I was foggy about some characters. That reading experience and I enjoyed reading all the way through.
