The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are 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 acclaimed author of It and The Shining, Stephen King.

From the maestro of police procedural and the bestselling author of Standing in the Shadows, comes Wednesday's Child, the sixth installment in Peter Robinson's Inspector Banks series.

When two social workers, tasked with investigating reports of child abuse, knock on Brenda Scupham's door, her deep-seated fear of authority compels her to obediently comply with their demands. Even when they inform her that they must take her seven-year-old daughter, Gemma, away for tests. It is only when they fail to return Gemma the following day that Brenda realizes something has gone horribly awry.

Concurrently, Banks is delving into a particularly unsettling murder that occurred at the site of an abandoned mine. Gradually, the threads of these two cases intertwine, leading Banks to encounter one of the most chilling criminals he has ever encountered.

Wednesday's Child is followed by the seventh book in this Yorkshire-based crime series, Dry Bones That Dream.
