Query: I have to disagree...

I'll have to disagree with the reviews to date. The author lost my interest within the first 30 pages by having a "6'6" cop wearing a frilly apron" deliver a cup tea to the lover of the murder victim (having told her the bad news on the phone after which she faints and he has to break into her house to revive her) NOW REALLY! and this is our protagonist and her right hand man. Too much melodrama and not enough reality for me.
