Description
Book SynopsisWhen a man is found in the middle of Alfreton Road in the early hours one Sunday morning, stark naked and bleeding heavily from a chest wound, he is the latest in a series of viscous attacks on men.
Enquiries in the mean-streets of Nottingham''s red-light district have brought the investigations to a dead end.
Charlie Resnick is the man for the job. And as if he hasn''t had enough to deal with, he now has to provide police protection for a celebrity at the annual crime convention - an author with some very unpleasant ''fan'' mail.
Chronically short-staffed as he is, it''s a guessing game as to when Resnick''s lack of manpower will have fatal consequences.
Trade ReviewA worthy addition to the increasingly indispensable Resnick series -- Maxim Jakubowski * Time Out *
