"Alan Scholfield's new novel is a suspenseful police procedural set in contemporary London, a culturally diverse metropolis where tensions are never too far from turning violent. Here, one misty and cold Easter weekend, police find the body of a television talk show host in a seedy part of town. His killer, Terry Collins, is a black teenager running from the law. Called onto the case are two policemen who are'outsiders' as well - Detective SuperintendentGeorge macrae, a veteran investigator, hard-living, and Scottish; and his partner, Detective Sergeant Leopold Silver, who is young, on his way up, and Jewish. As Macrae and Silver uncover the murderer's trail, another violent confrontation is taking shape. BusinessmanJack Benson is fleeing the Hong Kong bosses who want him dead for welshing on a loan. Benson's hope and refuge is his London flat, where Terry has holed up.". Seller Inventory # 006071

Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. 1st US edition, January 1991, so stated, with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. REVIEW COPY with sheet laid in. "Running away is the theme of Scholefield's colorful depiction of characters linked to the sordid murder of a London TV talk show host. The story's fast pace echoes the heartbeats of the lonely housewife who, afraid of evenings in her own home, flees to the arms of a businessman, himself fleeing from his Hong Kong bosses after failed business dealings. At the same time, a London teenager frantically pounds the London pavement searching for a haven where he can wash the blood of murder off his hands. In this first of a series, Scholefield develops the counterpoint among three clashing London policemen, portraying their working relationships as adeptly as Reginald Hill with his Dalziel and Pascoe team or P. D. James writing of Adam Dalgleish and Kate Miskin. As the interaction of police veteran George Macrae and assistant Leopold Silver mesh with the discordant lives of the housewife, businessman and teenager, Sholefield offers an example of crime writing at its best, in which the author uses a criminal situation to reveal character as well as some searing truths about contemporary life." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY.
