This is the third Quirke book. In this story, a friend of Phoebe's goes missing. Her name is April Latimer. She is a junior doctor at Quirke's hospital and her family is quite well known in Dublin. Quirke has gone in to rehab to try to get off alcohol and when Phoebe visits him, she tells him of April's disappearance. When he leaves rehab, he tells Inspector Hackett that April has not been seen for over two weeks. they go to her apartment and the Inspector notices that there is blood between the floor boards. It gets analyzed and it's blood from an abortion. Who's the father? Where is April? Do you know what was more interesting than this book? Everything. I stopped reading this book part way through to read another book. Also, I had to tear myself away from the internet many times to force myself to read this book because more interesting things include: FB, pinterest, blogs, gifs, online shopping, online TV, buzzfeed, the list goes on. There was way too much attempt at character development in this book. Which would have been okay if it wasn’t all completely pointless. As a mystery book this was awful. As a novel it was okay. It’s like the author couldn’t decide what he was trying to write though and seeing as how I was hoping for a mystery this did not meet my standards. I'm being harsh but I'm just annoyed at how much time I spent reading this blah of a book.
What do You think about Congetture Su April (2010)?
I enjoyed this novel, as I've enjoyed all in this series , but it was my least favorite .

Love the way loose ends are left untied. Mystery within a mystery.
