Description
This conspiracy goes all the way to the top ...When Inspector John Carlyle discovers a disoriented girl in a park near Buckingham Palace, he takes it upon himself to find out who she is and where she's from.
His hunt for the identity of the lost girl takes him from Ukrainian gangsters in North London to the lower reaches of the British aristocracy. Soon the inspector is on the trail of a child-trafficking ring that stretches from Kiev to London, even to the palace itself ...
A gripping and show more twisted thriller for fans of Robert Galbraith and Ian Rankin.

Volle Punktzahl für einen Cop, der weder Alk- noch andere Drogenprobleme hat, kein Kindheitstrauma aufarbeiten muß, eine ganz normale Ehe führt statt alles flachzulegen, was sich Journalistin/Kollegin/whateverin nennt und auch ansonsten keine Leichen im Psychokeller hat, dafür aber seinen Job mit aller gebotenen Ernsthaftigkeit angeht. Und das ist knackig geschrieben, hält die Spannung durchgehend auf hohem Level und läßt mich bereits nach den anderen Stories mit Inspector Carlyle schielen. Ist ja selten genug, solche glaubwürdigen Normalos in aktuellen Krimis überhaupt noch zu finden...
I am enjoying this series, I think mainly because it is set in Central London. The lead character has less problems than most of his contemporaries in other series, but still gets into difficulties with his superiors. It is quite a good read, but I have felt in all three books so far that the plots are a bit improbable, which serves to lower my ratings.
Great read
