The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are truly the pinnacle of excellence in the literary world. I implore you to embark on a journey of these captivating tales and challenge me to disagree – the legendary Stephen King himself.

From the masterful mind of a police procedural expert and the acclaimed bestselling author of Standing in the Shadows, comes Dry Bones That Dream, the seventh installment in Peter Robinson's renowned Inspector Banks series.

A contract killing. A secret past. Chief Inspector Alan Banks finds himself pushed to his very limits.

2.47 a.m. Chief Inspector Alan Banks lays his eyes upon the lifeless body of Keith Rothwell for the very first time. Just hours prior, two masked men had escorted the mild-mannered accountant out of his farmhouse and into the barn. There, they mercilessly executed him with a shotgun.

It is evident that this is a professional hit, but Keith Rothwell was not the type to cultivate deadly adversaries. Or was he? The police investigation soon unveils more questions than answers.

As Chief Inspector Alan Banks delves deeper into the investigation, he cannot help but wonder what lurks beneath the facade of the seemingly content Rothwell family. And when his old sparring partner, Detective Superintendent Richard Burgess, arrives from Scotland Yard, the case takes yet another unexpected turn.

This novel has been adapted into a major British ITV drama titled DCI Banks. It serves as a testament to the enduring popularity and acclaim of this Yorkshire-based crime series, which is followed by the eighth book, Innocent Graves.
