Last rites

Edición de la obra Last rites

"The wildfire spread of guns and drugs; violent outbreaks of gang warfare; festering corruption in the police department: It sounds like America's inner cities, but it's Nottingham, England. And it has local law enforcement tied up in knots."--BOOK JACKET. "So when an incarcerated murderer, temporarily released on compassionate leave, turns up at his mother's funeral and just as suddenly disappears, the local cops don't have a lot of time to spare for a manhunt. They did that job ten years ago when they put the killer away for life. Let the prison authorities run him to ground now."--BOOK JACKET. "But things aren't quite that simple. They never are when it comes to crime - or to affairs of the heart. And very soon, Inspector Resnick is tracking a killer who just may be up to his old tricks and knee-deep in the local drug wars."--BOOK JACKET. "Last Rites is a gritty, violent tale about modern-day cops and killers, but at its beating heart, it is about love: obsessive, familial, perverted, tender. It is about what we do in the name of love - and what love does to us."--BOOK JACKET.
