    I enjoyed this book even more than the first. It concerns the death of a woman who falls from a high floor in the hospital where she has had her bunions removed. A Syrian cleaner Ahmad is charged with her murder, even though it is by no means clear that she was pushed.Constance and Judith represent Ahmad and help the police get to the bottom of things. The timeline was more linear here than in the first instalment, which I prefer. It took a while for the "Aladdin" element to emerge, and again it was at the edge of reality/speculation. My only quibble was the way the victim's treatment was private one minute and on the NHS the next...?
