It was a cold Monday afternoon in April and it was her first day in her new job. She was an inspector in the Edinburgh - a new job in a new city. ( p6)
She thought it was unusual that Grant did not call her "madam". Sergeants usually call inspectors "sir" or "madam". Was it her age? He must be about fifty-five and she was only twenty-six. Or maybe he just didn't like new inspectors. Anyway, she thought, right now it wasn't important. (p8)
I read the book "Inspector Logan". This story is a mystery. The main characters are Jenny Logan, a police officer and heroin, Sergeant Grant, an officer helping Inspector Logan. They struggle to solve a murder case together. And then we can see those conversations cited above. Maybe I think, because Logan is a new inspector, Grant was checking whether she can work on her job or then. Logan still can't solve one case so he still call her madam. And Logan would understand his idea. One of the points of the story is how Logan grew up as an inspector and how Grant evaluate her, I think. This book is not just a mysterious story. So if you are bored with basic mystery content, I strongly recommend this book. Please read it!!
