Inspector Alan Banks is investigating the murder of a freelance music journalist who was working on a feature about the Mad Hatters for MOJO magazine. Aging rock superstars, the Mad Hatters have once again been brushed by tragedy. At a huge outdoor rock festival in Yorkshire in 1969, a young woman was brutally murdered-and she seemed to have ties to the Mad Hatters. Banks finds he has to delve into the past to find out exactly what hornet's nest the journalist inadvertently stirred up.
Reviews
...
In the sixteenth book about British Inspector Alan Banks, he investigates the murder of a journalist who was writing about a rock band of the 1960s named The Mad Hatters. Evidently, the journalist had learned something vital about a 1969 murder that involved the band. For a considerable portion of the book, Ron Keith must handle two narratives set 36 years apart, each involving one of the murders. The only warning listeners have of a change from 1969 to 2006 or vice versa is the announcement of a date. Keith handles these potentially confusing time shifts clearly. In addition, his interesting characterizations and well-paced reading make this an involving listen. R.E.K. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
