a debut novel also published under the title M For Murder. The book is set in Oregon & California jumping back & forth between 1963-1997. A search for a serial killer who hunts on a college campus and uses the alphabet to pick victims. An eight year hiatus between murders reignites an investigation with too many characters, unprofessional police & FBI officers, and disjointed language and errors. After reading I looked up the author who is apparently British but with the book set in the U.S. Language such as "whilst" way too many times, bin liner, packet meals, take away food, football pitch, & a character named Lawrence who was called Larry on some pages & Lawrie on others. Disjointed with too many characters but an actual OK mystery and surprise the killer
