When a man is found in the middle of Alfreton Road in the early hours one Sunday morning, stark naked and bleeding heavily from a chest wound, he is the latest in a series of viscous attacks on men.

Enquiries in the mean-streets of Nottingham s red-light district have brought the investigations to a dead end.

Charlie Resnick is the man for the job. And as if he hasn t had enough to deal with, he now has to provide police protection for a celebrity at the annual crime convention - an author with some very unpleasant fan mail.

Chronically short-staffed as he is, it s a guessing game as to when Resnick s lack of manpower will have fatal consequences.

John Harvey was born in London, where he now lives, while considering Nottingham his spiritual home. Initially a teacher of English && Drama, he has been a full-time writer for more than forty years. The first of his 12 volume Charlie Resnick series, Lonely Hearts was selected by The Times as one of the 100 Best Crime Novels of the Century and the first Frank Elder novel, Flesh && Blood, won the CWA Silver Dagger in 2004. He was awarded the CWA Cartier Diamond Dagger for sustained excellence in the crime genre in 2007, and his story, Fedora won the CWA Short Story Dagger in 2014.

In addition to writing fiction, he has written and published poetry, running Slow Dancer Press for over twenty years; his New && Selected Poems, Out of Silence was published in 2014. He has adapted the work of Arnold Bennett, A. S. Byatt, Graham Greene and others for radio and television, and in 2017, his dramatisation of the final Resnick novel, Darkness, Darkness, was produced at Nottingham Playhouse. He has been awarded honorary doctorates by the universities of Hertfordshire and Nottingham.
