Ex-college lecturer Gavin Miller is found dead; his distorted body strewn across a disused railway track near his home. There's no sign of a struggle, and no concrete evidence except for one distinguishing package: £5,000 of cash, tucked inside the man's pocket.
But when DCI Banks delves into Miller's past, he uncovers a troubled existence tarnished by accusations of abuse and misconduct which throws up an array of puzzling questions.
What really occurred at the college where the victim used to teach?
How was he embroiled in political activism at Essex University, over forty years ago?
And what links him to an upstanding pillar of the community, who also harbours a dark secret from her past?
One thing is clear: someone will stop at nothing - even murder - to prevent Banks from discovering the truth...

Varattu kirjan hepanneelle Ronyalle :)
I'll visit our local post office (which will be closed down soon, yes, that one too..) and drop there this Robinson's book in Helposti envelope (2nd class). With the book I'm participating 'Vapautusten vuosi 2016' release challenge by Chania and 'Sanatarkkaan 4' game by lunatum on the Finnish BC forum.
Enjoy reading!
Enjoy reading!

Thanks so much - this book has to wait for a while, since I have many of the series to read before that, but I am very pleased to have it now!

I liked that one a lot! I did not find it boring at all! Maybe I am always fond of political complications. At least in fiction.

Taking to a mini meet.
Picked up at today's mini meet at Prezzo, Hinckley. DH reads this author and a text ascertained that he had not read this one so home it goes.
DH has finally read this book and enjoyed it though found it to be a slow starter. However, once hooked, he couldn't put it down and he particularly liked the ending.
