La petite ville d’Eastvale, dans le Yorkshire, s’apprête à fêter Noël dans une ambiance et un décor de carte postale. D’autant que la neige est au rendez-vous. Hélas, cette atmosphère idyllique est endeuillée par le meurtre sauvage d’une jeune femme, Caroline Hartley, retrouvée nue au pied de son sapin, poignardée. Les soupçons sont nombreux – et se portent d’abord sur la compagne homosexuelle de Caroline – , mais les indices sont rares et ils mènent tous à des impasses car Caroline Hartley avait fait du secret son mode de vie… jusque dans sa mort. C’est le début d’une nouvelle enquête pour l’inspecteur divisionnaire Banks, secondé par le sergent Richmond et la détective Susan Gray, nouvellement promue, et, comme souvent chez Peter Robinson, sous le vernis des apparences, tout le monde a quelque chose à cacher…

Le pervers ne choisit pas ses victimes au hasard : celles-ci semblent toutes avoir un point commun. La tension monte d'un cran dans la cité lorsqu'une vieille dame est retrouvée sauvagement assassinée. Les deux affaires sont-elles liées ? Et que penser de ces deux adolescents, petits délinquants passés du vol aux agressions ? Banks va devoir faire preuve de perspicacité pour débusquer la vérité, au-delà des apparences.

"Robinson is an author with amazing empathy, a snare-trap ear for dialogue, and a clear eye for the telling detail."--Michael Connelly One of the world's greatest suspense writers returns with the 27th novel featuring the legendary detective Alan Banks in the mystery series Stephen King calls "the best now on the market." When property developer Connor Clive Blaydon is found dead, Detective Chief Inspector Alan Banks and his Yorkshire team dive into the investigation. As luck would have it, someone had installed a cache of spy-cams all around his luxurious home. The team hope that they'll find answers--and the culprit--among the video recordings. Instead of discovering Connor's murderer, however, the grainy and blurred footage reveals another crime: a brutal rape. If they can discover the woman's identity, it could lead to more than justice for the victim; it could change everything the police think they know about Connor and why anyone would want him dead. Meanwhile, tensions are rising between Banks and his friend, Zelda. A super recognizer--able to recognize faces significantly better than most people--Zelda is determined to bring the men who abused her to justice. But stirring up the murky waters of the past will put her in far greater danger than ever before, and Banks worries that he won't be able to stop her from plunging too deep before it's too late.

Banks is called to investigate his most grisly case yet in the twenty-second DCI Banks novel, by Number One bestselling author Peter Robinson.

The brilliant last novel in the number one bestselling Alan Banks crime series - by the master of the police procedural.[Bokinfo].

Dans le petit matin glacé de janvier, deux péniches en feu sur un canal du Yorkshire. Au milieu des décombres, deux cadavres calcinés. Pour l'inspecteur Banks, le meurtre ne fait aucun doute. Mais qui était visé ? Tina, la jeune droguée de seize ans, ou Tom, le mystérieux artiste solitaire ? Lorsque l'incendiaire frappe à nouveau, les talents d'enquêteur de Banks sont mis à rude épreuve...

Two missing boys. A stolen bolt gun. One fatal shot. Three ingredients for murder. When DCI Banks and his team are called to investigate the theft of a tractor from a North Yorkshire village, they're far from enthusiastic about what seems to be a simple case of rural crime. But when a blood stain is found in an abandoned hangar, and two main suspects vanish without a trace, events take a darkly sinister turn. As each lead does little to unravel the mystery, Banks feels as if the case is coming to a dead end. Until a road accident reveals some alarming evidence, thought to be disposed, which throws the investigation to a frightening new level. Someone is trying to cover their tracks - someone with very deadly intent ...

When DCI Alan Banks arrived in Eastvale his life was every bit as much of a mess as it is now. But he is holding an envelope that could change everything he understood about the events that sent him north twenty years ago. Walking again the narrow alleys and back streets of his mind, he remembers the seedy Soho nights of his last case - dubious businessmen in dodgy clubs, young girls on the game. And a killer on the loose. In addition to the brand new novella that fills in the gaps in Banks's life before Yorkshire, Peter Robinson gives us ten more brilliant and eclectic stories that have never before been published in the UK. The Eastvale Ladies' Poker Circle finds that murder may be just another game of risk. Is a suitcase of cash worth a man's head on a plate? And tragedy leads a young boy to learn the price of love . . .

In the tradition of Ian Rankin and Elizabeth George, this masterful novel of suspense—from New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-winning author Peter Robinson—spins a story of professional jealousy that could result in more than one murder. A peaceful demonstration in the normally quiet town of Eastvale ends with fifty arrests—and the brutal stabbing death of a young constable. But Chief Inspector Alan Banks fears there is worse violence in the offing. For CID Superintendent Richard Burgess has arrived from London to take charge of the investigation, fueled by professional outrage and volatile, long-simmering hatreds. Almost immediately, Burgess descends with vengeful fury upon the members of a sixties-style commune—while Banks sifts through the rich Yorkshire soil around him, turning over the earthy, unsettling secrets of seemingly placid local lives. Crossing Burgess could cost the Chief Inspector his career. But the killing of a flawed Eastvale policeman is not the only murder that needs to be solved here. And if Banks doesn't unmask the true assassin, his superior's misguided obsession might well result in further bloodshed. Peter Robinson once again explores the human psyche in a novel that demonstrates how our weaknesses can lead to deadly consequences.

***THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*** Murder is only the beginning for Banks and his team . . . The gruesome double murder at an Eastvale property developer's luxury home should be an open and shut case for Superintendent Banks and his team of detectives. There's a clear link to the notoriously vicious Albanian mafia, men who left the country suspiciously soon after the death. Then they find a cache of spy-cam videos hidden in the house - and Annie and Gerry's investigation pivots to the rape of a young girl that could cast the murders in an entirely different light. Banks's friend Zelda, increasingly uncertain of her future in Britain's hostile environment, thinks she will be safer in Moldova hunting the men who abducted, raped and enslaved her than she is Yorkshire or London. Her search takes her back to the orphanage where it all began - but by stirring up the murky waters of the past, Zelda is putting herself in greater danger than any she's seen before. And as the threat escalates, so does the danger for Banks and those who love Zelda . . .
