The corpse in a plastic sack is the perfect climax to Detective-Inspector
Graham’s bank holiday weekend: the east coast is sweltering under the
August sun, the town is full of trippers and the deceased has been dumped
on the busiest part of the beach.
Vince Lowther, ponce, welfare scrounger and theif, was the kind of promising
young low-life no-one at Eddathorpe nick will miss. But Graham and his
colleagues are unprepared for the many shocking revelations surrounding
he death of this busy entrepreneur.
As the enquiry develops, a discredited psychological profiler from the Midlands
sniffs a connection with a series of sec crimes committed elsewhere. But, as
Graham sees it, he’s overlooking on inescapable fact: Lowthe was undoubtedly
a boy, the other victims were girls…

A solution as clever as any I've read this year. D.I. Graham, with his homicidal Lakeland terrier, is an unconventional copper from the same breed as Frost and Morse. On this form, he should win fans and keep them.
Flynn has created an excellent detective and a memorable setting...extremely talented.
Expertly done...Some very satisfactory policing set against acridly detailed background of out-of-season holiday town.
He gives the police procedural an insider's expertise, including in-jokes
