Query: Not Grimes usual best

I have loved Martha Grimes books, but just sort of, not quite, liked this one. The inconsistencies, many and glaring, that another reviewer mentioned were extremely irritating. What I found most peculiar about this book is that everyone who heard this story was in total disbelief at what an extraordinary tale it was. Page 73...Melrose says "that is the strangest story I have ever heard". Page 76 Jury says "The whole damned thing's fantastic. Page 95...Dr.Phyllis Nancy after hearing the story "shakes her head in near disbelief". It is an unfortunate and tragic reality that people go missing every day, and are never heard from again. Why in the world would a group of law enforcement people find this so strange and unbelievable? That and the many inconsistencies throughout the book, and the Mungo part made this book really difficult to finish.
