Suicide is not, strictly speaking, a detective inspector's business, but Bill Slider's colleague takes one look at the body and calls in his boss. 'It don't look right to me, guv, ' is Detective Sergeant Hollis's opinion. 'But I can't quite put my finger on it.'<br> As Bill Slider investigates, he reluctantly has to agree: the man's poky flat is too tidy, for one thing, and smelling of fresh emulsion rather than, say, feet. That's not to mention the method of death: a single slash to the left jugular, when evidence soon proves him to be left-handed. But as Slider and his team try to identify the man - whose personal papers are missing, along with his wallet and keys - it seems that the more they find out about him, the less they really know . .<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A sly wit that leavens this richly detailed mystery is a bonus.-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>Between his love Joanna's grouchiness, his superior's lack of patience, and the case's seamier byways and drug-addled persons of interest, it's not the easiest of times for Slider, but most readers will want to spend even these dour moments with him-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br>Clever, engaging, and well plotted, this is a fine example of the British police procedural and sure to be a hit with genre buffs and Anglophiles-- "Booklist"<br>
