Series: Dalziel & Pascoe

A family mystery turns police politics into child's play in the ninth instalment of Reginald Hill's bestselling series. Geraldine Lomas's son went missing in Italy during World War Two, but the eccentric old lady never accepted his death. Now she is dead, leaving the Lomas beer fortune to be divided between an animal rights organisation, a fascist front and a services benevolent fund. As disgruntled relatives gather by the graveside, the funeral is interrupted by a middle-aged man in an Italian suit, who falls to his knees crying, 'Mama!' Andy Dalziel is preoccupied with the illegal book one of his sergeants is running on who is to be appointed as the new Chief Constable. But when a dead Italian turns up in the police car park, Peter Pascoe and his bloated superior are plunged into an investigation that makes internal police politics look like child's play...

Reviews for Child's Play (Audio Book)

'The fertility of Hill's imagination, the range of his power, the sheer quality of his literary style never cease to delight.' -- Sunday Express 'Few writers in the genre today have Hill's gifts: formidable intelligence, quick humour, compassion and a prose style that blends elegance and grace.' -- The Sunday Times 'He is probably the best living male crime writer in the English-speaking world.' -- The Independent
