In his latest novel James Barlow returns to the milieu he exploited so effectively in The Patriots. Here he traces every step in the planning and execution of a major robbery in present-day England. Against the decadent and explosive background of gambling clubs, drug-pushers, professional thugs who cut up their victims and intimidate witnesses, amoral debs, seedy boutiques and 'bent' counsel, he gives a brilliantly exciting account of how, with popular opinion increasingly favouring the criminal, the police are refused vital help by scared and cynical members of the public. Writing always as someone who cares and never despises, Mr. Barlow draws an all too convincing picture of a world in which justice, like morality, is regarded as something to be denigrated. |
