Off Minor

Little Gloria Summers’ body has been found, hidden inside two plastic bin bags in a disused warehouse. Somewhere in the city, a child killer is on the loose, free to strike again.

Then Emily Morrison vanishes on a sunny Sunday afternoon. A week later there are still no clues. Inspector Charlie Resnick is as appalled as the media. But years of patient police work have taught him a thing or two – including his conviction that those who jump to easy conclusions are often the last ones to solve a crime.

Reviews

British crime fiction's most impressive series of the last decade

—— Time Out

Charlie Resnick is one of the most fully realised characters in modern crime fiction; complex and capable, a man who not only loves justice, jazz and cats, but one who can turn the construction of a sandwich into a work of art

—— Sue Grafton

The consummate pro, a master storyteller and witty observer . . . The Travis McGee novels are among the finest works of fiction ever penned by an American author and they retain a remarkable sense of freshness

—— Jonathan Kellerman

...my favorite novelist of all time

—— Dean Koontz

A master storyteller, a masterful suspense writer . . . John D. MacDonald is a shining example for all of us in the field

—— Mary Higgins Clark

What a joy that these timeless and treasured novels are available again

—— Ed McBain

There’s only one thing as good as reading a John D. MacDonald novel: reading it again . . . He is the all-time master of the American mystery novel

—— John Saul
