Susan Hill's THE VARIOUS HAUNTS OF MEN in The Star-Ledger

Great word on the new Simon Serrailer mystery THE VARIOUS HAUNTS OF MEN in the Star-Ledger:

""The Various Haunts of Men," the first of three novels featuring Detective Inspector Simon Seral lier (the second, "The Pure in Heart," comes out in November), is a controlled, impressive piece of work. The heroine is Freya Graf fham, a young policewoman who has transferred from London to rural Lafferton in the aftermath of a messy divorce. She balances the pleasure of starting a new life with the chore of convincing her superiors that her instincts about a string of recent disappearances are worth listening to. (The ending leaves us primed to discover more about Se rallier, something of an enigma here, in the next installment.)"--Charles Taylor
