REVIEW
Oh how I missed DI Barton! I am glad we have got another chance to delve into case again with Barton and his team.
Barton’s desk job is coming to an end and with potential retirement looming he jumps at the chance to head up the Major Crimes team again – albeit it temporarily. The team morale is all over the place and a bit disjointed, soon he works the Barton magic and rallies the team to get to the bottom of a missing child and the connection between that case and a woman’s life who was almost run over!
Barton loved being back in the thick of it all, with some new and some very familiar old faces Greenwood has yet again rocked a sleepy little town with murder.
I enjoyed this case, there was a lot going on and lots of pieces to the puzzle but what I enjoyed the most was having Barton back — please can we have more?
