Reviews

"Reliable procedural entertainment from a pro's pro, with an ending that guarantees more drama ahead." - Kirkus Reviews"Engrossing... Those who enjoy methodical police procedurals that build to a logical, satisfying conclusion will be amply rewarded." - Publishers Weekly on Careless Love"As usual, Robinson provides a solid police procedural enhanced by the rugged Yorkshire setting. Banks himself--jazz and solitude-loving, difficult, somewhat melancholic, unlucky in love--is always fascinating... [F]or series fans, this one is a sure bet." - Booklist on Careless Love"Not Dark Yet finds Banks at an existential crossroads. . . . The plight of Zelda, it seems, has rocked Banks's sense of himself and his career as a lawman to the core." - Wall Street Journal"Celebrated suspense writer Robinson returns with the latest in the long-running series starring Yorkshire DCI Alan Banks. Fans will welcome this latest Banks adventure and revel in what Michael Connelly calls Robinson's 'clear eye for the telling detail.'" - Booklist on Not Dark Yet"Robinson pulls the reader in with deft characterizations, powerfully understated action scenes, and strong locales--while leaving space for this amateur musicologist's usual legion of song and album references... A strong addition to the Banks series that suggests tantalizing possibilities for the next installment." - Kirkus on Not Dark Yet"Bestseller Robinson ably balances multiple plotlines in his intricate 27th novel featuring Det.
