DCI Brock investigates murder in East London

Review:
"Survivors were still being discovered beneath the ruins of demolished shelters, and all of the effort was going into finding them." Babel is eerily prescient of the 11 September tragedy, both in mood and details. A philosophy professor is assassinated and DCI Brock, with DS Kathy Kolla, investigate Muslim extremists and the university's Centre of Advanced Biotechnology. We are in familiar Maitland territory, characteristically set in and around depressed urban settings (the previous novel Silvermeadow involved a vast shopping mall). As a pairing they are fast becoming one of the most notable duos in modern crime fiction. Babel is one of their better outings, dark and intricate. If this type of downbeat story has appealed to the reader before, then it will again, as will Maitland's growing skill as a storyteller.
Book Description:
A stunning crime thriller ¿ the sixth starring detectives David Brock and Kathy Kolla ¿ from an author who has a dedicated following and gets better with each book.
