The first gripping British crime novel in Peter Robinson's acclaimed Inspector Alan Banks series, Gallows View is a chilling police procedural about a detective pursuing a Jack the Ripper–like killer terrorizing a quiet Yorkshire village.
Chief Inspector Alan Banks moved away from London to the quaint village of Eastvale to find some peace, but trouble can be found in a village as well as in the city. Soon Banks must contend with a Peeping Tom, a group of juvenile delinquents, and the brutal murder of an elderly woman in her home. A growing friendship with psychologist Jenny Fuller and tension with wife Sandra complicate matters, particularly when Jenny and Banks's family are threatened. Ultimately, as the story builds to a surprising and terrifying climax, Banks must make some hard decisions.
Filled with atmosphere, British detective work, and the moral complexity that defines the genre, Gallows View introduces one of crime fiction's most compelling investigators.
