Cold is the Grave by Peter Robinson
4.0
In this, DCI banks is asked by the Chief Constable to go to London and bring the runaway Emily back home to her father Chief Constable Riddle. I found it odd why he would be asked to do this and wasn't convinced of Banks's motivation to agree to it.
That said this sets off a series of events which introduce us to a gangster type in Barry Clough.
Robinson neatly plots the story as Banks investigates a number of murders with Yorkshire connections.
One thing annoying is how Robinson continually describes what various characters are wearing. Unless it moves the story forward I don't care.
In the end Robinson neatly brings all the strands in the book together including a jaw dropping reveal involving Clough I didn't see coming.
