Praise for Sleeping in the Ground: The 24th DCI Banks novel from The Master of the Police Procedural
-
Peter Robinson has for too long, and unfairly, been in the shadow of Ian Rankin; perhaps PIECE OF MY HEART, the latest in the Chief Inspector Banks series, will give him the status he deserves, near, perhaps even at the top of, the British crime writers' league. - The TimesRobinson also has a way of undercutting the genre's familiarity. With a deceptively unspectacular language, he sets about the process of unsettling the reader. - IndependentThe Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are the best series on the market. Try one and tell me I'm wrong. - Stephen King
