Description

A baffling murder on a remote country lane puts Alan Banks and his team to the test in the detective's most intense and gripping case yet – from an author hailed by Louise Penny as "a writer at the top of his game."

With Detective Inspector Annie Cabbot investigating the young woman's death, newly promoted Detective Superintendent Banks finds himself taking on the coldest of cases: a fifty-year-old assault allegedly perpetrated by beloved celebrity Danny Caxton. Now Caxton stands accused at the center of a media storm, and it's Banks' job to discover the shocking truth.

As more women step forward with accounts of Caxton's manipulation, Banks must piece together decades-old evidence – as the investigation leads him down the darkest of paths...

Suspenseful, powerful, and surprising, When the Music's Over is the finest novel to date from one of the foremost suspense writers at work today.

        In Edgar-winner Robinson’s timely, sobering 23rd Inspector Banks novel (after 2015’s In the Dark Places), Det. Insp. Annie Cabbot investigates the rape and murder of 15-year-old Mimosa “Mimsy” Moffat, a white girl found naked on a country road, who lived in the nearby estates in Wytherton, York, and ran with a crowd that included several older guys of Pakistani descent. While Cabbot must tread carefully in the racially charged atmosphere during her investigation, Banks, recently promoted to detective superintendent, looks into claims made against a beloved British variety star, Danny Caxton, a 1960s-era crooner known for the catchphrase “Do your own thing,” which seemed to include raping 14-year-old Linda Palmer in 1967. Banks must decide whether Palmer, a poet who now wants to pursue a case against Caxton, is credible, and whether she’s his only victim. Robinson takes hot-button topics—xenophobia, sexual assault, and celebrities—and turns them into uniquely compelling cases for Banks, who remains a stalwart of justice in crime fiction.

        The 23rd Alan Banks mystery (after In the Dark Places) opens with a naked girl thrown out of a van on a dark country road. DI Annie Cabbot and recently promoted Detective Superintendent Banks pursue separate but related cases, linked by the sexual exploitation of teen girls. Cabbot works the rape and murder case of the 15-year-old girl ejected from the van, a case possibly connected to the heinous practice of grooming girls for prostitution and complicated by cultural differences with the Asian community. Banks's investigation involves historical abuse. Well-known poet Linda Palmer was raped in 1967 at age 14 by popular British celebrity Danny Caxton. As the evidence piles up and more crimes surface the teams race to solve their cases. Happily, the resolution includes the hint of a new age-appropriate love interest for Banks. VERDICT Somehow, Banks and company never lose their appeal for fans of gritty British crime novels, especially those featuring a music-loving detective who is always in trouble and rarely lucky in love. Series followers won't be disappointed. [See Prepub Alert, 2/29/16.]--Barbara Clark-Greene, Groton P.L., CT

        The twenty-third installment in Robinson's popular DCI Banks series largely focuses on the sexual abuse of minors. Those who followed the revelations that beloved British TV and radio star Jimmy Savile was, in reality, a Jekyll and Hyde who used his celebrity to sexually abuse hundreds of young girls, will find that real-life case expanded upon in a really chilling way here. Banks, recently promoted to detective superintendent in North Yorkshire, is asked to head a team investigating cases of historical abusecases not cold, just never reported. An established poet has claimed that superstar presenter Danny Caxton assaulted her in 1967, when she was 14. At the same time, Detective Inspector Annie Cabbot must deal with the murder of another 14-year-old girl, whose body was found along a roadside. Robinson, who has won a clutch of awards, including the Edgar, the UK's Crime Writers' Association's Dagger in the Library Award, and Sweden's Martin Beck Award, delivers another cracking police procedural about an issue that has immediacy. Unfortunately, despite his gripping story lines, Robinson remains a long-winded writer, rarely using one word if 20 are at hand.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2016, American Library Association.)
