關於本電子書

‘The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are the best series on the market. Try one and tell me I'm wrong’ – Stephen King

From the master of police procedural and bestselling author of Standing in the Shadows comes A Necessary End, book three in Peter Robinson’s Inspector Banks series.

Peace destroyed. Lives in ruin. Banks must race to find the killer . . .

Everyday life in Eastvale is shattered when a policeman is stabbed to death after an anti-nuclear demonstration turns violent. Superintendent ‘Dirty Dick’ Burgess, Banks’s nemesis, descends with vengeful fury on those he deems responsible.

Inspector Banks is uneasy about Burgess's mishandling of the case. Despite being warned off, he puts his career in jeopardy to continue his search for the truth – knowing that, if he wants to keep his job, he must beat Burgess to the killer . . .

'Inspector Banks – a man for all seasons, he knows that often the answers to the clues he seeks are hidden in his own heart' – Michael Connelly, author of Fair Warning

Adapted into a major ITV drama, DCI Banks.

A Necessary End is the third entry in this Yorkshire-based crime series. It is followed by book four, The Hanging Valley.
