Bill Slider

review 1: Another in the DCI Bill Slider series which again proves that the author can write a great little police procedural. In this outing, a famous former BBC journalist who was working for the government is killed in his apartment. It is made to look like a robbery and the caretaker of the building is set-up as the murderer. But Slider and his squad know differently. Things turn very dark when one of Slider's old enemies,Trevor Bates appears on the scene and threatens Slider's life and that of his soon-to-be wife, Joanna. Is Bates involved in the murder and if so, why? A complicated story which reaches into the higher echelons of government and keeps the reader's attention from page one.
review 2: This is one of my favorite writers. Her series protagonist, Bill Sli... moreder, is looking for the murderer of an ex-BBC correspondent who seems to have been involved in uncovering some nefarious goings-on. In the meantime, Slider's archenemy, "The Needle", is threatening him & his family. And Slider is trying to marry his lover Joanna before she has their baby. Good stuff by a master of witty dialogue & erudite puns. less
