An outstanding series' NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
A Bill Slider Mystery
Burdened with an increasing number of new Home Office directives and a regular rousting by top brass, the last thing Detective Inspector Bill Slider needs on his manor is a fire - not to mention a fire in a sleezy motel with a body.
Called to the site of the fire, in which a man registered as John Smith perished, Slider is unconvinced that the death was the result of suicide.
Praise for the Bill Slider series:
'Unerring characterization, droll copper dialogue and a gritty London setting, Harrod-Eagles mines fresh pleasures from standard procedural resources.' Publishers Weekly
'A lively and witty writer.' New York Times Book Review
'The mystery is a good one, its investigation is workmanlike, and the writing is assured and even elegant.' Sunday Telegraph
