"Hi! I really enjoyed the Alan Banks books. I thought the "Camaleon" books were better. I am dissapointed with the last chapters, because I thought that the end would be more exciting, but I like it because it is interesting and my favorite genere is the horror and thiller. "

Quotes
-
“Robinson’s last two Banks books have been winners...and so is Aftermath.”
— Orlando Sentinel -
“A proven master of the British police procedural, Robinson should find a large audience for this gripping, psychologically astute tale.”
— Publishers Weekly -
“The story is gruesome and graphic, but is hauntingly effective, especially when juxtaposed with Ron Keith’s precise and melodious reading. His accent is genteel and euphonic, and his intonation lively, creating a startling contrast to this story of murder and evil passions. As is typical in Robinson’s writing, past and present, public crimes and private life all merge in a compelling and unforgettable story.”
— AudioFile -
“Robinson’s canvas is as admirably broad and his insight into character and motive as keen as ever.”
— Kirkus Reviews

" Great book. Latest in the series, which just gets better and better. An examination of victim vs. victimizer - and how difficult it is sometimes to see them apart. Chief INspector Alan Banks also continues to grow in his own relationships. "
— Marisa, 1/27/2014 -
" A really enjoyable read. Full of intrigue and suspense. A 'must read' book if you enjoy thriller/crime genre. "
— Vivien, 1/21/2014 -
" I like his writing style with a very detailed plot line that kept your interest from page 1. His main characters were well defined as were his subsidiary ones. "
— Vionna, 1/21/2014 -
" Creepy plot and easy to read without having read any of the others involving the main detective but does suffer from 'Strong woman who has ~~trauma~~ in her background' syndrome and does fail the Bechdel test, which is disappointing for a book with so many active female characters. "
— Meg, 1/15/2014 -
" A wonderful and excitng murder mystery. "
— Kyle, 1/12/2014 -
" I found this even better and much more interesting, psychologically speaking. "
— Franco, 11/23/2013 -
" I have read all of Peter Robinson's books and there are no bad ones. My favourite mystery writer by far!!!!! "
— Carol, 10/9/2013 -
" Really kept my interest, although a hard-to-imagine situation at the end. Kept the main characters moving along in their lives so that I want to read more. "
— Nancy, 9/18/2013 -
" Interesting crime novel in which the culprit is immediately caught. It's largely about the ramifications of a serial killer's crimes and also how victims can become perpetrators. Banks is a decent character too, far better than in the chaotic TV version. "
— Robin, 8/24/2013 -
" This just might be the best of this series that I have read. Robinson weaves together a number of subplots but without losing focus or distracting the reader from the main story "
— Don, 8/12/2013 -
" Police procedural. Lots of twists and turns, and conveys a feeling of gritty reality, but somehow never really grabbed me. "
— Harry, 1/1/2013
