Synopsis

“The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are, simply put, the best series now on the market.”—Stephen King Peter Robinson is one of the very best in the crime fiction business—a teller of dark police tales who stands firmly in the bestseller ranks alongside Ian Rankin and Elizabeth George. In All the Colors of Darkness, the maestro whose masterworks Janet Maslin of the New York Times compares to “the masculine, brooding work of Dennis Lehane, Michael Connelly, Harlan Coben, George Pelecanos, and Jonathan Kellerman,” brings back his unforgettable series characters Yorkshire Chief Inspector Alan Banks and Detective Inspector Annie Cabbot. A gripping story with echoes of Shakespeare’s Othello set in our contemporary age of terrorist fears, All the Colors of Darkness supports the Miami Herald’s contention that “it’s a crime if you miss [this] author.”

What can I say about this one? Obviously I love Alan Banks but this book was not up to par with the others in the series. If it’s a police procedural I am usually absorbed with the action, the crime scene crew and resulting investigation. But this time Robinson brought a spy element into the story;......more

Goodreads review by Ian on February 18, 2009

I really enjoyed this one - and looking at amamzon.co.uk reviews, it would appear as though i was the only one! In a switch from the henning mankell novel recenyly read, we have a mystery here which is not resolved until the end. We follow banks as he progresses through the investigation. And the crim......more

Goodreads review by Bill on June 21, 2019

I initially had mixed feelings about this, the 18th of Peter Robinson's excellent DCI Banks novels. Usually I'm gripped by Robinson's writing within a few chapters, but it took a lot longer before I really got into this one. This time Robinson paints a broader canvas than usual, & although still a po......more
