Description
THE SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER.
The twenty third instalment of the NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING DCI Banks Series.
The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are the best series on the market. Try one and tell me I'm wrong. - Stephen King
Two young girls.
Two unspeakable crimes.
Fifty years separate them - their pain connects them.
When the body of a 15-year-old is found in a remote countryside lane, beaten and broken, DI Annie Cabbot is brought in to investigate how the child could possibly have fallen victim to such brutality.
Newly promoted Detective Superintendent Alan Banks is faced with a case that is as cold as they come. Now in her 60s, Linda Palmer was attacked aged 14 by celebrity entertainer Danny Caxton, yet the crime has never been investigated - until now.
As each steps closer to uncovering the truth, they'll unearth secrets much darker than they ever could have guessed . . .

Reviews
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
