It took me two or three attempts to get through this relatively short novel which I think says something about what I thought of The Light of Day.
The story takes place on a nominal day, and as our protagonist, a former policeman and now private investigator heads off to prison to visit someone. I’ll be honest and say that I found it hard work. I couldn’t easily empathise with any of the characters – something I find I really have to do in most novels. So I can’t wholeheartedly recommend it. I notice that some of the reviewers on the cover talk about reading it in one sitting. That’s certainly not the case for me!
