✦ Synopsis

When hardened criminal Don Starling escapes from jail, killing a prison guard in the process, DCI Martineau knows he will stop at nothing to make good his escape. The two men have known each other since childhood, and Starling blames Martineau for his incarceration a decade earlier. As the story hurtles to its conclusion, the two men meet in a final, violent confrontation.
The first of Maurice Procter's Inspector Martineau series, Murder Somewhere in This City was made into a taut, fast-paced film in 1959 by Hammer Studios, set against the grimy back streets and rain-streaked bright lights of Manchester.
