'A writer at the very height of his powers' - Ian Rankin. Detective Chief Inspector Alan Banks has reached a turning point. With his wife now living with another man in London and his career in the doldrums thanks to Chief Constable Riddle, it is time to ring the changes. Perhaps a move to the National Crime Squad? Perhaps a second chance with Sandra? But then late one night, he is summoned to Riddle's house - and his plans take a surprising new turn. For the Chief Constable's sixteen-year-old daughter Emily has run away and for once Riddle wants Banks to use his unorthodox methods to find her without fuss.
Yet another book bought twice by mistake!

This is on its way to the winner of the EU Birthday Sweepstake, hope you enjoy this and all the other books heading your way.
Thank you very much, yorkshire-lass, for passing this book on to me. I love this kind of book and this sounds interesting BUT it has to go on my TBR shelf for a little while :-)
I finally got round to reading this and whilst it was an interesting read, I found it got bogged down in places. There was just too much incidental detail in some parts and I found wading through it to be very tedious. It took me ages to get through it - I mainly read it in bed at night and I kept falling asleep, which just goes to prove it didn't really hold my attention all the way through! Furthermore, I had whittled down "whodunnit" to one of two characters, and I was right...
It wasn't that bad, though. I mean, maybe I would have found it more appealing if I had only read it early in the day...
*****
