In the North of England, a cop hunts for a homicidal woman: "Smartly paced, slyly humorous, unsentimental about police work . . . one of his best" (Kirkus Reviews).
Although the cop who finds the man in Alfreton Road describes him as "absolutely stark bollock naked," that is not quite true—he is wearing a sock. The naked man is flabby, middle-aged, and bleeding heavily, in no shape to be sprinting down the street at three in the morning. After the ER doctors patch up his stab wound, the man tells the police he was attacked by a prostitute. Then he clams up, embarrassed, and refuses to even give his name.
This is the fourth such recent attack reported to police inspector Charlie Resnick's thinly stretched Nottingham police department. Two victims were salesmen; the other was a traveling Italian soccer fan, lured away from his friends by a redheaded beauty. It's up to Resnick to find a link between the crimes, and to nab the perpetrator before more of the city's men let their basest urges lead them into peril.
