Belongs to SeriesDCI Cook (7)
On the bed, the naked bodies of a man and a woman. ‘Bullet in the head’s not the way to go,’ Larry Hill, Isaac Cook’s detective inspector, said. ‘Do you recognise him?’ Detective Chief Inspector Isaac Cook said. ‘James Holden, from what I can see.’ ‘Rent by the hour?’ ‘Not according to her handbag. There’s a business card. She worked for the man.’ ‘You know this will be all over the media within the hour,’ Isaac said. ‘James Holden, a proponent of the sanctity of the marital bed, man and wife. It’s bound to be.’. No library descriptions found. |

Were they killed because Holden made enemies? Or is the crime tied to Langdon's background, dancing in a strip club run by organized crime?
Or are the two things connected?
It is, in any case, only the tip of the scandal iceberg, and others will be brought down by it.
Isaac Cook, Larry Hill, Wendy Gladstone, and others at or connected to the Challis Street Station remain interesting characters who continue to grow. Never having been there, my opinion is uninformed, but London's diversity has the feel of being very real, not the same ethnic stew I live in, but a real one, with different ingredients. The police world also has the feel of being real, though I'm even less informed on that. Very enjoyable, and a satisfying mystery.
