Peter Robinson's mystery novels, including his latest, showcase a remarkable evolution in power and intelligence. Unlike many crime-fiction writers who rely on repetitive formulas, Robinson consistently delivers increasingly complex narratives. His previous works, such as Cold Is the Grave and In a Dry Season, blend character development with gripping crime plots, and this latest installment continues that trend. The story revolves around a disturbing case involving the disappearance of attractive young girls, victims of a cunning psychotic killer who hides behind a respectable façade. Detective Chief Inspector Alan Banks of the Yorkshire Police leads the investigation while grappling with personal issues, including his estranged wife's pregnancy with her lover and their pending divorce. Robinson's English mysteries are far from cozy, even when set in idyllic rural villages. He confronts themes of gore, deviance, and violence, revealing a raw world beneath the surface. If this is your first encounter with his tough yet tender storytelling, you may quickly find yourself captivated by the work of one of today's most skilled authors in detective fiction. --Otto Penzler
