Synopsis

“Harvey’s seventh procedural is smartly paced, slyly humorous, unsentimental about police work, violence, and other alienations of aff ection—altogether one of his best. Just like his first six.”—Kirkus Reviews

“John Harvey’s Resnick novels are far and away the finest British police procedurals yet written.”—GQ

“If Harvey gets any better, the rest of us may have to kill him.”—Reginald Hill

Resnick’s hands are full enough tracking down the prostitute who is stabbing her clients, without having to babysit a strong-mouthed American crime writer, visiting the city with her husband and prey to threats of violence.

Review:

"Harvey's seventh procedural is smartly paced, slyly humorous, unsentimental about police work, violence, and other alienations of affection -- altogether one of his best. Just like his first six."-Kirkus Reviews "An atmospheric British thriller which mischievously contrasts the true world of crime with the rather more mundane preoccupations of the mystery writers' conference, and a worthy addition to the increasingly indispensable Resnick series."-Time Out
