Dead Man's Time-------pan macmillan
A vicious robbery at a secluded Brighton mansion leaves its
elderly occupant dying. And millions of pounds’ worth of valuables have
been taken. But as Detective Superintendent Roy Grace, heading the
enquiry, rapidly learns, there is one priceless item of sentimental
value that the old woman’s powerful family cherish above all else. And
they are fully prepared to take the law into their own hands, and will
do anything, absolutely anything, to get it back.
Within days,
Grace is racing against the clock, following a murderous trial that
leads him from the shady antiques world of Brighton, across Europe, and
all the way back to the New York waterfront gang struggles of 1922,
chasing a killer driven by the force of one man’s greed and another
man’s fury.
