The Reluctant Coroner is a good mystery that I truly enjoyed.  The pace is great, it has many intriguing situations and the writing is nice.  The plot is engaging, the characters are all very complex. Fenway is an interesting character - I didn't really like her but I was compelled to keep reading about her and what will she do next. Her relationship with her father was very interesting for me, felt very realistic. The cases she had to work on were fantastically written. Overall, I enjoyed this book and I recommend it.
