✦ Synopsis

Banks is on holiday, headed for Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. His
daughter, Tracy, home in Leeds and angry with her father, is headed for
some very deep trouble. Robinson's nineteenth Inspector Banks novel is a
stunner.

Handguns are illegal in the U.K., and whenever one is
reported, the police swing into high gear. But things go very wrong when
the police swoop down on a home in Eastvale to seize a reported
handgun. In the confusion, Patrick Doyle, a former neighbour of Banks,
is shot. Doyle's daughter, Erin, is to blame for the gun being in the
house, and while she's in police custody, her housemate in Leeds, Tracy
Banks, decides to let Erin's boyfriend know that the police have been
around their place. Bad decision. When Banks returns home from holiday,
Tracy is missing. And that's not the worst of it.

Robinson's
latest Inspector Banks novel is a powerful story of how the volatile
emotions of love and resentment can turn deadly when fear comes creeping
in.
