Police procedurals are a tried-and-true genre, so whenever a new series comes along, I always want to know what sets it apart. Why should I read
this first in a series, as opposed to the many others that have come and gone? Nadine Matheson, a criminal defense lawyer based in London, answers that question with her main character in her debut
The Jigsaw Man: Detective Inspector Anjelica Henley, a Black woman whose position is highly mistrusted by her family and larger community.
Henley s identity certainly isn t the focus of
The Jigsaw Man, but it permeates the novel. As Henley tries to do her job, investigating serial murders that hit a little too close to home, she s constantly reminded that her community doesn t trust her profession or her colleagues. They wonder why she s chosen the job she has, and what it might say about her as a person. It adds an additional layer of complexity to an already well-written and engaging novel.
