Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. A rainy September in 1950s Brighton and both the criminals and the police are concerned about events. A prominent member of a local gang (and triple agent) has disappeared, a lunatic who decapitates policemen has escaped from Broadmoor and an eminent professor has been shot dead in local department store. Inspector Steine has returned to Brighton after being lauded a hero because of his killing of a gangland leader and he has a new secretary who has asked Mrs Groynes, police charlady and criminal mastermind, to keep out of the office and do the work she is paid for. A planned Christmas heist is now under threat. This is the next in a very entertaining series set in Brighton. Truss has managed a wonderful 'faux-naif' way of writing which suits the preposterous plots and and lends a knowing innocence to the narrative. All together these books are delight, light but with hidden depths. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

It's September in Brighton and the city is playing host to weeks of endless rain and lashings of villainy. A trusted member of a local gang has disappeared part way through planning a huge heist; a violent criminal obsessed with boiling the heads of policemen has escaped Broadmoor and is rumoured to be headed towards the city, while at Gosling's department store an American researcher has been found dead in the music section. Inspector Steine has other things on his mind - since the triumphant conclusion to his last case, Steine has so many awards and invitations coming his way that he has had to take on a secretary - but Sergeant Brunswick and Constable 'Clever Clogs' Twitten are both on the case. If only they could work out just who is behind these dastardly acts... Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
