Al finalizar un concierto de rock, un grupo de jóvenes encuentra el cadáver de una muchacha en el interior de un saco de dormir. Todo apunta a que ha sido brutalmente asesinada y a que su muerte guarda cierta relación con la banda de psicodelia Mad Hatters. Al menos, eso quedó reflejado en el expediente del caso, que en su momento fue investigado por un tal Stanley Chadwick. Décadas después, el inspector Alan Banks se topa de nuevo con el nombre de los Mad Hatters relacionado con una muerte; en este caso, la de un periodista que estaba escribiendo un artículo sobre la banda. The story begins in September 1969 where a woman's body was found in a sleeping bag in the aftermath of a rock concert. It becomes apparent that the murder has a connection with Banks' current case. This was probably the disappointment of my reading year. It was next in the series for me and as I was unable to lay my hands on a print copy I settled for audio. The story may have been a winner but was ruined by Ron Keith's atrocious narration. I wish I had skipped this one entirely and jumped to the next in the series. Based on my previous experience with Robinson, an author I've enjoyed, I'm awarding three stars. If the rating was based on the audio reading it would be much less. Another brilliant story. It is difficult to say too much without giving away the plot but, one of the areas covered in this tale is the concept of a policeman "knowing" the perpetrator but not having the proof. As one would expect from Mr Robinson, this is done so much better than the usual bad cop twists things for a quick settlement of his case. Were I to be churlish, the switching between a current and an historic case, in the early part of the book, became a little tedious but, in truth, when the resolution came, it was so satisfying and I can't see a better way of getting to that point so, no stars lost. I can't wait to read the next in the series - which I have the foresight to have on standby. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Two investigations, years apart. Obviously, there had to be something to tie them together, and around p200 it happened.
A story full of damaged people on both sides of the law.
Another very enjoyable DI Banks story. ( )
