Jimmy Jenner has been working as a private detective since a terrorist bomb caused him to lose a leg and his job on the police force. When he is hired to work a straightforward divorce case, everything seems normal - until a man resembling him becomes the victim of attempted murder and the subject of his inquiries is found dead in Epping Forest. Jenner is forced to examine his own past and confront buried answers to questions about his brother's gangland death, which may hold the key to the violence surrounding him now...Award-winning John Milne is one of the grittier British heirs of the Chandler tradition; his bitter ex- policeman hero, Jimmy Jenner, stalks the streets of South London, short of a leg from an IRA bomb. Jenner's wife stayed on the force and has left him for a high flier; times are hard and someone is taking potshots at cars that look like his. Jenner is damaged goods, but has an attractive determination to make sense of his confusing world.

Everything for once does tie up; the suburban adulterer he is following is there when a reformed gangster is shot and his ex-wife's fiancé is altogether too interested in what is going on. Jenner's elder brother, a minor league hoodlum, died horribly and pointlessly when buried alive 30 years ago, and this too ties up with the events of the present. The question is whether Jenner can avoid joining him.

Milne makes Jenner attractive by giving him a tough, unsentimental attitude to London crime and a sense of being adrift: wanting to be Philip Marlowe in a world that expects him to be a "New Lad" or a yuppy. For once, the detective learns less by detection and more by understanding his own heart. --Roz Kaveney, Read Kindle Books On Pc .
