The Price of Love and Other Stories
Robinson, Peter
Starred Review. Bestseller Robinson (_All the Colors of Darkness_) proves that Yorkshire coppers aren't his only worthwhile subjects in this outstanding story collection. Crime in its myriad forms runs throughout, from an American GI falsely accused of rape during WWII in Cornelius Jubb to a detective remembering his childhood role in bringing down a gang of robbers in The Price of Love. The settings range from the familiar Eastvale of the Inspector Banks series to Robinson's current home in Toronto. He even tries his hand at noir in The Cherub Affair, complete with a down-on-his-luck PI and a beautiful woman in need of help. Banks fans will be delighted with the inclusion of two short stories and two novellas starring the Yorkshire detective chief inspector, one of which, Like a Virgin, is original to this book. For those unfamiliar with Robinson's work, this serves as an excellent introduction to one of the best voices in contemporary crime fiction.
