Bad Boy: The 19th DCI Banks Mystery by Peter Robinson

4.0

We've all met him, right? You know who I mean? The bad boy who is so cool, so handsome. He's the one who knows how to dress, who disdains working at some "dead end job." We KNOW he's dangerous. We know he'll wind up breaking our hearts. Yet, there's something about him...... In this newest in the DI Alan Banks series, it's his daughter, Tracy, who finds herself in hot water thanks to her attraction to the quintessential bad boy. Jaff is half Indian, went to a swanky "public school" in Britain and is an Oxford grad. He doesn't work for a living, but he always has money. He dresses incredibly well, has lots of "posh" friends and some who are not so great. He started out as her best friend, Erin's, boyfriend. However, the proverbial "shit hits the fan" when they kiss at a dance. Erin is furious and goes home, but it's what she brings home that causes the problem: a loaded hand gun. Peter Robinson is one of my favorite authors. He writes incredibly well and loves music as you will see if you read any of his books. Great story. One of his books has been made into a television show in Britain. With luck, PBS will get it one of these days.
