Description

"...In this new edition of Not Safe After Dark, Robinson showcases once again his extraordinary talents with a collection of twenty stories, including three featuring Inspector Banks. In 'Going Back,' Inspector Banks's trip to celebrate his parents' golden anniversary reveals how evil can wear many disguises. In...'Missing in Action,' the disappearance of a young boy in the early days of World War II sparks a mob mentality with chilling results. 'Innocence' captures the desperate plight of a man trapped by a set of coincidences that derail his life and lead him down a path he was destined to travel. The title story, 'Not Safe After Dark,' is an exhilarating tale with a sudden conclusion that will leave readers' hearts pounding. Not Safe After Dark deftly explores the darkest edges of humanity in which everyday people must commit desperate acts as they face fear, temptation, and impulses too irresistible to control." -- Back cover.
