Autor Peter Robinson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 ian 2014
MASTER A MAZE OF MURDER.

When a 19-year-old girl is found dead in a tangle of alleyways known as The Maze, DCI Alan Banks is called in to investigate. With no shortage of suspects, Banks soon finds himself missing DI Annie Cabbot. Their personal problems aside, he could really use her sharp instincts on the case.

But Annie has troubles of her own. She's looking into another murder, and, on the face of it, the two deaths have nothing in common. But as Annie digs deeper, she finds something disturbingly familiar in the case.

Perhaps she and Banks will find themselves working together again a lot sooner than expected...

A thrilling Alan Banks mystery from the master of the police procedural, Peter Robinson.

Recenzii

Watch for those twists - they'll get you every time
Robinson once again puts his skills to work in a police procedural that grips like pliers
Classic Robinson: a labyrinthine plot merged with deft characterisation
Peter Robinson is good at producing ingenious mysteries, and this one does not disappoint
If you haven't encountered Chief Inspector Alan Banks before, prepare for a crash course in taut, clean writing and subtle psychology
Readers will be on the edge of their seats
It's neither the setting nor even the characters that makes Robinson's work so satisfying, but the plotting of Swiss-watch precision

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Two murders . . . two towns. . . .
A woman sits in a wheelchair perched on a cliff high above the sea, her throat slit from ear to ear. . . . In a maze of narrow alleys behind a market square, a teenage girl has been murdered after a night of drunken revelries with her friends.
The seemingly senseless Cliffside killing falls to Inspector Annie Cabbot, on loan to a local police department. The terrible death of young Hayley Daniels becomes Chief Inspector Alan Banks's investigation. But shattering revelations threaten to awaken the slumbering demons of earlier, darker times, and more blood is in the offing when the two cases brutally and unexpectedly collide.
Friend of the Devil is a chilling, brilliant, and utterly mesmerizing novel of suspense.
