Publishers Weekly

The wife of Liverpool solicitor Harry Devlin left him two years ago for a shadily rich gym owner. Now Liz shows up on Harry's doorstep, asking for shelter: she is estranged from the gym owner, but he's upset about her new boyfriend and might kill her. Sure enough, someone murders Liz the next day in a back alley, and suspicion falls on Harry, who subsequently vows to find the perpetrator. Nicely crafted prose pervades, complete with court scenes, petty criminals, seedy surrounds, and a few pigheaded cops. This is the first series title to be published in the United States. For fans of British crime fiction. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
