About this listen

Strange Affair is the 15th novel in Peter Robinson's Inspector Banks series, following on from Playing with Fire.

When Alan Banks receives a disturbing message from his brother, Roy, he abandons the peaceful Yorkshire Dales for the bright lights of London to seek him out. But Roy seems to have vanished into thin air.

Meanwhile, DI Annie Cabbot is called to a quiet stretch of road just outside Eastvale, where a young woman has been found dead in her car. In the victim's pocket, scribbled on a slip of paper, police discover Banks' name and address.

Living in Roy's empty South Kensington house, Banks finds himself digging into the life of the brother he never really knew nor even liked. And as he begins to uncover a few troubling surprises, the two cases become sinisterly entwined....

Strange affair

I’ve read a few of Peter Robinson’s books and watched the tv series, mostly I’ve enjoyed them. This one was ok. The narrator reasonable. The story was interesting and I liked it but towards the end it didn’t hold my attention. Out of 10 I’d give it a 6. Not great but not dreadful either.
