When his longtime nemesis, the amphetamine-juiced killer known as "Upper" North, is spotted in England, Detective Chief Inspector Brock is on the trail. His manhunt centers on Silvermeadow, a huge and glittery new shopping mall on the outskirts of London, where North was seen. Lying in wait, he and Kathy Kolla take on a seemingly unrelated case as camouflage, that of a missing girl who had worked in the mall. But what to make of the rumor of other girls gone missing?

Coming up against dead ends, Kathy sets off to follow some leads of her own - and finds out that going solo can be very dangerous.

Editorial reviews

In this fourth book in the police procedural series by Barry Maitland, Scotland Yard's Detective Sergeant Kathy Kolla and Detective Chief Inspector David Brock investigate seemingly unrelated cases centered in the glittering Silvermeadow shopping mall. Fans of the series will enjoy narrator Angele Masters' superb characterizations - her Kathy has an expressive, frank voice, which contrasts well with Brock's more reserved, stoic manner of speaking.

Masters also keeps up the energy and pace of the story as the two detectives try to puzzle out the connection between an amphetamine-addicted criminal and a body found in the mall's trash compactor area. As he winds up the suspense, fans will be tempted into finishing the entire audiobook in one sitting.

I wasn’t certain how to grade this. It was a good story, fairly well told. Allot of characters tho. Most unlikeable. Including our heroin! She was very difficult to respect. By the end of the book, I figured her and all her knuckle dragging, stereotyped, fickle crew deserved whatever came to them.

What else can I say? Couldn’t have been an awesome book, but… meh…

Started slow and thought I was not going to like Mr. Maitlands writing very much. I kept putting it down and starting again after reading another novel. Finally, after getting past the first 20 pages, I couldn't stop listening, and I like this book enormously. I will now be reading the next book of Mr. Maitland with great expectations. His build-up
to the discovery of the solving of the mystery was excellent.

INCREDIBLE INSIGHT
