About this listen
When Juliet Doyle discovers a gun in her daughter’s bedroom, she turns to old friend DCI Alan Banks for advice. But Banks is taking a much-needed holiday, and it's left to DI Annie Cabbot to deal with the removal of the firearm. No one could have foreseen the operation's disastrous consequences, or that the Doyles would not be the only family affected.
Tracy Banks has fallen for the wrong boy. Her flatmate’s boyfriend is good-looking, ambitious, and surrounded by an intoxicating air of mystery. He's also very dangerous. When Tracy warns him that the police might be on his tail, he persuades her to go on the run with him, and flattered by his attention, she agrees. Before she knows it, a deadly chase across the country is set in motion. And on his return, completely unsuspecting of his daughter's precarious situation, Banks is plunged into his most terrifying and personal case yet.

Far from being formulaic (a word that reviewers seem to throw in with gay abandon) this is an adventure story which has all the elements of a good thriller, a "kidnap", drug pushers, last minute evasion, but all mixed such that you won't guess which character will move next and where.
I am a big fan of Banks (I hope the TV do not wreck his character) and have enjoyed most of the books. This book is fast paced and gritty and you will want to hear it in one sitting!!
One of Robinson's best.

An excellent story and very well-read. If you are sitting by the fire, thinking about action, this is the story to listen to to get the adrenalin pumping.

Badly written, banal, a waste of money
