The gruesome double murder at an Eastvale property developer' s luxury home should be an open and shut case for Superintendent Banks and his team of detectives. There' s a clear link to the notoriously vicious Albanian mafia, men who left the country suspiciously soon after the death. Then they find a cache of spy-cam videos hidden in the house - and Annie and Gerry' s investigation pivots to the rape of a young girl that could cast the murders in an entirely different light. Banks' s friend Zelda, increasingly uncertain of her future in Britain' s hostile environment, thinks she will be safer in Moldova hunting the men who abducted, raped and enslaved her than she is Yorkshire or London. Her search takes her back to the orphanage where it all began - but by stirring up the murky waters of the past, Zelda is putting herself in greater danger than any she' s seen before. And as the threat to Zelda escalates, so does the danger for Banks and those who love her . . .
Banks' slow but dogged pursuit of murderers and his meditations on the past make him a figure readers feel they know intimately and trust implicitly and, despite moments of darkness, the series' warmth makes you feel all' s right with the world - S MagazineA fast-paced and ingenious story - On Yorkshire MagazineHis novels track the changing nature of crime, taking on difficult subjects such as gangs of men who groom underage girls, and the new book tackles the contentious subject of widening inequality - Sunday TimesRobinson has a unique knack of revealing to the layman the painstaking and ingenious ways in which the numerous experts who work for the police can wheedle out the most infinitesimal clues surrounding a suspicious death - On Yorkshire MagazinePraise for the DCI Banks series - -The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are the best series on the market. Try one and tell me I' m wrong - Stephen KingPeter Robinson has for too long, and unfairly, been in the shadow of Ian Rankin; perhaps PIECE OF MY HEART, the latest in the Chief Inspector Banks series, will give him the status he deserves, near, perhaps even at the top of the British crime writers' league - The TimesRobinson also has a way of undercutting the genre' s familiarity. With a deceptively unspectacular language, he sets about the process of unsettling the reader - Independent
