So says the nameless narrator of the three police procedurals that comprise Derek Raymond's Factory Series. A plainclothes detective sergeant, he works in the Department of Unexplained Deaths, an obscure division of the Metropolitan Police that handles the grubby, unimportant dead who will never make headlines or bring a promotion. His turf is the underbelly of squalid South London, a world of prostitutes and the deranged, criminals and the destitute. As Publishers Weekly said of He Died With His Eyes Open, the first book in the series, Raymond's procedurals are 'unsettling and provocative. more like Notes from Underground than a conventional mystery.' THE DEPARTMENT OF UNEXPLAINED DEATHS. In THE DEVIL'S HOME ON LEAVE, our narrator's latest murder case is a bit tastier than usual, even for seedy South London: five stapled-up garbage bags, leaning against a warehouse wall, full of what used to be a human being - sawed-up, bled, boiled, and bagged. It's a pm job, sure, but someone forgot to throw the victim into the Thames. And as our wily sergeant knows from experience, a psychopath can leave a trail of clues in the very act of covering his tracks. In this case, the clues lead to some very influential doorsteps. Our hero finds himself doing work that Special Branch should handle, and he's none too happy about it. Derek Raymond was born in London but has lived abroad for many years in such places as Morocco, Italy, Turkey, and the United States. For the past eight years he has lived in rural France where, as a relaxation from writing, he occasionally works in the local vineyards. He Died With His Eyes Open has just been made into a film starring Charlotte Rampling and Michel Serrault. inventory #9351. Codice articolo z9351
