Strand Notes

"Pix" is the twenty-fourth installment in acclaimed author Bill James's series featuring Detective Chief Superintendent Colin Harpur and his unstable boss, Assistant Chief Constable Desmond Iles. Harpur and Iles's territory is under fire as drug dealers fight for dominance. The highly profitable drug market is under threat, a houseful of paintings is stolen, and a man in a very nice suit is found with his throat slit. A phone tap related to Iles's unsanctioned undercover work leads him to some answers, but with everything descending into chaos, can Harpur and Iles find the truth and catch the killer before one of them is the next victim?

Description

There's intrigue right from the start of this new entry in Bill James's Harpur and Iles series: A houseful of paintings is stolen and the body of a finely dressed stranger is discovered. Villainous drug dealers fight for dominance on Constable Iles and Detective Harpur's turf. While the kingpins maneuver and scheme, Harpur is helped-or hindered?-by his very persistent daughters and by Iles's irregular and perhaps illicit methods. In this fast-paced thriller, there's no telling who will catch the next bullet.
