So far, this is my second favorite in the series. We get to see Duncan's family, which adds an extra layer to Kit's relationships with Duncan and Gemma. The thing I missed, though, was Duncan and Gemma trying to do their various jobs in London. Several of the recent novels have taken place out of their jurisdictions, allowing them to work together, if not officially. I do like the novels where they have to avoid stepping on each other's toes.
