About this listen
The 26th instalment of the Number One bestselling series
'The master of the police procedural' Mail on Sunday
'The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are the best series on the market. Try one and tell me I'm wrong' Stephen King
***
A skinny young boy is found dead - his body carelessly stuffed into wheelie bin.
Detective Superintendent Alan Banks and his team are called to investigate. Who is the boy, and where did he come from? Was he discarded as rubbish, or left as a warning to someone? He looks Middle Eastern, but no one on the East Side Estate has seen him before.
As the local press seize upon an illegal immigrant angle, and the national media the story of another stabbing, the police are called to investigate a less newsworthy death: a middle-aged heroin addict found dead of an overdose in another estate, scheduled for redevelopment.
Banks finds the threads of each case seem to be connected to the other, and to the dark side of organised crime in Eastvale. Does another thread link to his friend Zelda, who is facing her own dark side?
The truth may be more complex - or much simpler - than it seems . . .

Enjoyed the story but
Enjoyed the story but getting bored with listening to the constant referral to the music Banks listens too, not necessary for the story.

dull story, good narrator but poor sound quality
Being a long time fan of the DCI Banks series I had pre ordered this audiobook and greatly looked forward to the day it was released. Unfortunately it did not live up to my expectations. There was an ongoing story regarding a character from previous books, and, to be honest, I found this aspect quite boring. The main story was as described in the blurb, again I didn't find this terribly interesting.
It makes me sad that a series I had followed and enjoyed for so long should come to this.
The two stars for performance does not apply to the narrator who does an excellent job but to the poor quality of the recording. It lacked clarity and breath sounds are evident which is very distracting
