"If you haven't caught up with Peter Robinson already, now is the time to start." - "Independent on Sunday." Former London policeman Alan Banks relocated to Yorkshire seeking some small measure of peace. Unfortunately, depravity and violence are not unique to large cities. His new home, the quaint little village of Eastdale, seems to have more than its fair share of malefactors. In this collection of Inspector Banks's first three cases in Yorkshire, CWA Dagger in the Library and Edgar, award-winning author Peter Robinson introduces a detective as brilliant as he is complex. These intricately plotted, gritty novels of suspense lay the foundation for a remarkably acclaimed detective series.
