Items related to A Death In Valencia
Max Camara is feeling low. Ominous cracks have appeared in the walls of his flat; the body of a well-known paella chef has been washed up on the beach; there are rows and threats about abortion clinics; the town hall is set on demolishing El Cabanyal, the colourful fisherman's quarter on Valencia's sea-front. As Cámara untangles these threads, he stumbles into a web of corruption and violence, uncovering deep animosities and hidden secrets, and forcing himself to question his own doubts and desires.
Starring the determined Cámara, with his love of flamenco and brandy, and occasional doped-out high, A Death in Valencia delves into issues that rouse unruly passions and divide the Spanish people today.

"Camara is a lively edition to Mediterranean coppery" (Marcel Berlins The Times)
"Jason Webster has made Valencia his own... This is Chief Inspector Max Camara’s second outing, and his colourful personality is every bit a match for the vibrant but often trouble home of paella he has to keep safe" (Henry Sutton Daily Mirror)
"Our favourite Spanish, flamenco-loving, brandy-drinking inspector (and there are a few) is back" (Sport Magazine)
