Author interview

  

Back in 1999, Robert Crais set out to take his readers fully into the world of one of his two heroes - Joe Pike. For the first time, we really saw what made his creation tick, away from his partnership with Elvis Cole. That book - LA Requiem - has since been hailed as Crais' finest novel.

Now with The Last Detective, we see the other half of this bestselling duo. Elvis Cole has to face up to a crime that takes place far too near home. His girlfriend's only child has been kidnapped and it seems that it's something from his own past that has come back to haunt him...

 

'Thriller with a heart'
