Touch by Mark Sennen.

Follow Detective Inspector Charlotte Savage with an enquiry into rape, missing persons and murder. Touch is a crime thriller set in Devon. This novel follows both the police and Harry, the perpetrator along the same time line. I liked the way the plot developed, getting the story from both sides. I enjoyed this creepy tale that had a good pace. The story deals with the darker side of pornography...

‘Some sort of snuff film?’
‘It is the stuff of fiction, respectfully, sir. There is very little evidence of real snuff movies ever being made. Certainly not for distribution.’

...and deals with men's relationship with images and pornography. Touch offers a good explanation of Harry's motives and desires.

There is some good banter between police officers...

‘Result, ma’am. You don’t have three big screens connected to one machine just to waste your life on Facebook.’

... and this book is a good mix between police procedure, the perpetrator and a good social commentary. It is also good at describing how people relate to one another. This is a murder story but it is very British in it's attitude...

The line of mid-range cars – some new – parked on the road testified to the fact that the area had aspirations. Still on-street though, Savage noted. Only once you parked your car on your own land could you finally say you had arrived in true middle class suburban heaven.

... Mark also wrote a lot about the weather, very British but unnecessary! Harry's last actions were however unrealistic and made a disappointing end to this novel.

Touch is a good book and I shall be voting it 4 stars on Good Reads . It was written in 2011 and I bought the 729 KB Amazon Kindle version.
