Acerca de este libro electrónico
Chief Inspector Aden Vanner hunts down a cold-blooded assassin in London’s drug underworld in this page-turning thriller from the author of Sorted.
Drug Squad Chief Inspector Vanner is investigating a group of crack dealers in Harlesden, London’s Caribbean district, when a bizarre murder captures his attention. Jessica Turner, a seemingly unremarkable suburban woman, was gunned down in her home with a TT-33 Tokarev—a make of gun now obsolete in its native Russia, but still common among terrorists in the Irish Republican Army. Unless it’s a case of mistaken identity, Jessica Turner clearly had a secret.
As Vanner digs deeper into the case, he begins to make connections between Jessica’s murder and the Harlesden gang, between her cagey husband and the IRA, and between himself and a vengeful old acquaintance. When all the pieces collide, even a seasoned pro like Vanner isn’t prepared for the explosion.
Close Quarters is the final book in Jeff Gulvin’s gritty and authentic police-procedural trilogy set in the dark streets of London, which includes Sleep No More and Sorted.

Acerca del autor
DIVJeff Gulvin is the author of nine novels and is currently producing a new series set in the American West. His previous titles include three books starring maverick detective Aden Vanner and another three featuring FBI agent Harrison, as well as two novels originally published under the pseudonym Adam Armstrong, his great-grandfather’s name. He received acclaim for ghostwriting Long Way Down, the prize-winning account of a motorcycle trip from Scotland to the southern tip of Africa by Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman. The breadth of Gulvin’s fiction is vast, and his style has been described as commercial with just the right amount of literary polish. His stories range from hard-boiled crime to big-picture thriller to sweeping romance./divDIV /divHalf English and half Scottish, Gulvin has always held a deep affection for the United States. He and his wife spend as much time in America as possible, particularly southern Idaho, their starting point for road-trip research missions to Nevada, Texas, or Louisiana, depending on where the next story takes them.
