52/6 #6 - Picking Up the Pieces
29/7/07 - Picking Up the Pieces by Paul Britton
The sequel to ‘The Jigsaw Man’ follows Britton as he tries to balance his criminal work with his job as a NHS psychologist and the cases here are far more personal. No longer do we deal with famous killers like Fred and Rose West or the Bulger killers, now we’re onto smaller stories about a man who killed rabbits because he couldn’t kill his abusive father, a woman who was ‘posessed’ with a repressed personality and a man who thought he was a werewolf. Read both back-to-back, and marvel at how Britton manages to solve a case using only a photo of the dead body - the rest of the information is missing.
