Never Die in January - Rilegato

About Alan Scholefield's debut mystery series, Publishers Weekly has said, "Detectives Macrae and Silver could become as indelible as Colin Dexter's Inspector Morse or Ruth Rendell's Wexford." Here, the Detective Superintendent George Macrae, a tough, old-fashioned copper, and his partner Detective Sergeant Leopold Silver, a suave, intellectual rookie, return in a chilling procedural that turns detective into suspect and then into victim.
When Macrae's complicated private life reaches a crisis point, rumors begin to circulate that a senior police officer is "bent," and Leo Silver is told to investigate his own partner - in absolute secrecy.
This well-crafted and closely observed thriller resonates with suspense from the first page to the surprising last, confirming Alan Scholefleld's reputation as a master storyteller.
