'If you haven't caught up with Peter Robinson already, now is the time to start.' - "Independent Sunday". One foggy night, Deborah Harrison is found lying in the churchyard behind St Mary's, Eastvale. She has been strangled with the strap of her own school satchel. But Deborah was no typical sixteen-year-old. Her father was a powerful financier who moved in the highest echelons of industry, defence and classified information. And Deborah, it seemed, enjoyed keeping secrets of her own...With his colleague Detective Constable Susan Gray, Inspector Alan Banks moves among the many suspects, guilty of crimes large and small. And as he does so, plenty of sordid secrets and some deadly lies begin to emerge...'The novels of Peter Robinson are chilling evocative, deeply nuanced works of art'. - Dennis Lehane.
Peter Robinson's DCI Banks became a major ITV1 drama starring Stephen Tompkinson as Inspector Banks and Andrea Lowe as DI Annie Cabbot. Peter's standalone novel Before the Poison won the IMBA's 2013 Dilys Award as well as the 2012 Arthur Ellis Award for Best Novel by the Crime Writers of Canada. This was Peter's sixth Arthur Ellis award. His critically acclaimed DCI Banks novels have won numerous awards in Britain, the United States, Canada and Europe, and are published in translation all over the world. In 2020 Peter was made a Grand Master by the Crime Writers of Canada. Peter grew up in Yorkshire, and divided his time between Richmond, UK, and Canada until his death in 2022.

Eccellente passatempo/studio
Leggo romanzi gialli o di avventura in lingua originale per coltivare l'inglese. Da quando uso gli e-book vado sistematicamente a vedere il significato di tutte le parole che non conosco e così questa attività è diventata ancora più efficace. Se studiate una lingua straniera kindel è eccezionale e i romanzi di Peter Robinson moolto belli, scritti in un inglese gradevole.

Fesselnd, realistisch und angenehm zu lesen
Hi, zunächst eine Einschränkung: Ich bin voreingenommen. Mir haben alle Banks-Romane einschliesslich INNOCENT GRAVES, die ich las, sofern sie als Tb erhältlich waren, gefallen. Mir erscheinen die Schilderungen realistisch, auch die der Empfindungen der Personen. Die umfassende Darstellung von Details ist nicht langweilig. Die Handlung enthält mehrere Stränge, und überraschende Wendungen. Ich habe übrigens bereits die beiden Folge-Romane gekauft. Allerdings lese ich die Bücher nicht hintereinander, sondern im Wechsel mit den Romanen der Sequenz von C.J.Sansom.

Au-delà du thriller
Ce livre nous emmène et nous fait réfléchir sur le thème de la rumeur, puis des fausses accusations qui peuvent détruire la vie d'un être, sur fond de meurtres, le tout mené avec la grande maîtrise habituelle de l'auteur. Par ailleurs, assez différent de la version filmée.
