Description
Spain is corrupt and on the brink of collapse.The king is ill, banks are closing, hospitals are in chaos, homes are lost, demonstrators riot and rightwing thugs patrol the street. The tunnels beneath the streets are at once a refuge and a source of anger. And as the blood flows Cámara roars in on his motorbike...
Cámara is back in Valencia and in the old police headquarters the mood is tense as the chief hunts for cuts – who will go, Cámara or his friend Torres? The two men are flung into action investigating the suicide of an ex- bank clerk and the brutal murder of a young American woman. As the city erupts around them, their case takes them into the heart of the trouble.
A Note From the Publisher

Advance Praise
'All
great cities need a fictional cop, and now Valencia has one of the very
best in Jason Webster's dope smoking Chief Inspector Max Cámara. Step
into his world of the corrida, corruption, and clouds of saffron and you'll be hooked. But if he offers you a roll-up…' Quintin Jardine
'Conveys a wonderful sense of Spain... [Webster] does for the country what Michael Dibdin did for Italy' Geoffrey Wansell, Daily Mail
‘If
you’re tiring of the frigid climate of Scandinavian crime fiction, a
welcome antidote may be found in Jason Webster’s sultry (and elegantly
written) Max Cámara series set in Spain’ Barry Forshaw, Financial Times
‘Jason Webster has made Valencia his own’ Henry Sutton, Daily Mirror
Marketing Plan
The 4th in the Cámara crime series – taking Cámara to the brink.
Scandi
crime exposes social and political landscape; Jason is controversial
and eye-opening with regard to Spain. Perfect for big news features,
interviews and radio discussion. Relates to our own anxieties about
private and public health.
Jason,
and Max, are acclaimed and admired by reviewers, crime aficionados and
websites including crimesquad.com and Jake Kerridge (see new
endorsements from Mark Billingham and Quintin Jardine). The first in the
series, Or the Bull Kills You, was shortlisted for CWA New Blood Dagger 2011.
New
non-fiction from Jason in April 2014, about the Catalan WW2 spy Juan
Pujol, so his profile (especially re Spain) will be high
