Blood at the Root
Blood at the Root | Peter Robinson
4 posts | 6 read | 1 to read
When the body of young Jason Fox is found stomped to death after pub closing hours, it looks like an open-and-shut case of a drunken brawl turned deadly. The victim had made racial slurs toward three youths in the pub, and since the three resist questioning, Eastvale's Detective Chief Inspector Alan Banks and his colleague, Detective Constable Susan Gay, have no choice but to have them locked up. But they're out in no time, and Banks faces a furious Chief Constable Riddle who accuses him of laying the timber for a racial conflagration and demands that Banks leave the legwork to his underlings and run the investigation from his desk without further incident - or find himself on traffic duty.

I thoroughly enjoyed getting back to reading about Alan Banks. This time around he‘s having many big problems in his life, but that won‘t stop him from solving a crime, which has actually been “solved” already. A young man has been killed, but who did it and why? The story is not as straight forward as it might seem and eventually everything from white supremacy and drugs are part of the problem - and solution. Highly recommended!

Tove_Reads So happy I decided not to continue reading the series by jumping over this book in the series, since I couldn‘t get hold of it. The story is vital, if one is interested in Banks and his life. Would have missed out on a lot by skipping this book. 5y
