Description
Banks isn't back, and that's the problem.
If DCI Alan Banks had been in his office when his old neighbour came calling, perhaps it would have turned out differently.
Perhaps an innocent man would still be alive.
And perhaps Banks's daughter wouldn't be on the run with a wanted man.
But Banks is on holiday, blissfully unaware of the terrible chain of events set in motion by the discovery of a loaded gun in a young woman's bedroom, and his daughter's involvement with the ultimate bad boy . . .

Media Reviews
It's neither the setting nor even the characters that makes Robinson's work so satisfying, but the plottning of Swiss-watch precision * Independent *
Superbly cinematic from the beginning to the explosive finale, this would be a thrilling movie * Joesph Wambaugh *
Riveting * The Times *
Brilliant! . . . Gut-wrenching plotting, alongside heart-wrenching portraits of the characters who populate his world, not to mention the top-notch police procedure * Jeffery Deaver *
