THE BURNING GIRL is Book 4 in author Mark Billingham's DI TOM THORNE Series. Appropriately named, DI Thorne is "a thorn in the side" of many, including his superiors, colleagues, as well as criminals; and occasionally the reader as well. He is not a character I've been able to warm up to, nor are there many in this mystery to whom I did, except possibly Carol, retired DI, assigned to cold cases, who can never forget one particular case, her first; and pathologist Phil Hendricks, "a real character. " (smile)
This is my first exposure to Thorne. I've seen a lot of praise, but I am unsure as to whether I will try to continue this Series: maybe not soon.
