Synopsis

Why did fourteen-year-old Helen Bassam fall to her death from a tower block? DI Joe Faraday is on the case, but almost immediately, he’s fighting for resources. The body of a drug dealer is found hanging from a tree, and the head of the Major Crimes Squad is pulling in all the manpower he can get. Faraday plunges into Portsmouth’s bleak netherworld of wrecked families and children cast adrift. But as he tracks down a ten-year-old boy who may hold the key to Helen’s death, he’s faced with a crisis much closer to home.

From AudioFile:

Searching for the killer of a drug dealer, the answer to the death of a 14-year-old girl, and the solutions to their own personal problems, the police detectives in Portsmouth, England, who are featured in this Detective Inspector Joe Faraday novel are ill represented by Tim Pepper. He reads aloud to himself as if he has been banished to a closet underneath the stairs and directed to make no meaning of the words or the situations. Such a disappointment when one anticipates a worthwhile mystery. J.P. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
