annarella 's review for:

Hot Water by Christopher Fowler
4.0

3,5* upped to 4
This is a good thriller featuring a cast of unlikeable characters and constant sense of doom plut the usual Christopher Fowler humour.
I think a great part of the rating is due to expectations: even if I read and enjoyed stories that weren't Bryant&May this was the first after the end of the series and I was expecting something different.
I like how the character were developed and how they were unlikeable. I also loved the dark humour which is always present.
The thriller was average, a bit to slow to keep me on the edge till the end.
I'm sure that my rate would be better if I was going to read it next year.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
