Sinossi
Harpur's domain is a small seaport city south of London. It's not unusual for the big-town criminals to consider such a spot as easy prey. At such times a policeman must rely keenly upon his colleagues, to be sure, and also upon his retinue of narks.
This time it's a Lloyd's Bank branch that's the target. When the heist is postponed, a policeman is killed. One nark, then another, is murdered. As Harpur becomes driven to his limit, he must bypass regulations and settle things once and for all with a vicious crook named Holly. But not necessarily on his own terms.

Recensione
Praise for Bill James:
British mystery writing's finest prose stylist writes with such verve and originality he transcends what can often be a stale mystery sub-genre to produce novels that are startling, achingly funny and sometimes wholly surreal. Essential reading.
James' Harpur and Iles books are deliciously unsavoury: a brilliant combination of almost Jacobean savagery and sexual betrayl with a tart comedy of contemporary manners. (John Harvey, Guardian.)
Masterly... there is nothing else quite like this series... all delivered in a ferociously poetic voice that is uniquely Bill James. (The Times)
Bill James has long been one of British crime writing's hidden jewels. (Time Out)
