Last Bus to Woodstock

The British setting feels so authentic — I wonder what inspired Dexter to craft this particular small-town vibe. Did his own experiences shape the mood?

The story had me hooked at the start and end, but the middle felt a bit slow. I’m curious if that was a deliberate choice to deepen the mystery or just my reading experience.

The detective’s inner conflicts really added depth, but I wonder if that was a conscious decision to make him more relatable or just a natural writing style.
