About the Author
Bill James has been named a "Master of Crime" in a mystery roundup by the London Sunday Times, which said, "There is nothing else quite like this series of police procedurals. James is concerned with the dilemmas and difficulties of policing Britain's inner cities, and he addresses these in hard-edged narratives that leave readers gasping and flinching, praying the people in these stories never come to live in their streets."
Review
A tremendous writer. . . . Where else can you find a mystery series with as many layers of gorgeous stuff? -- Chicago Tribune
