Description
Speed makes teenage bikers feel alive, but it's also the fastest way to die. A five-mile stretch of arrow-straight road outside Latchford acts like a magnet for beatnik bikers using the road as a drag strip. When one of them is killed in an accident, most people think it's just a consequence of kids using drugs and racing bikes for kicks. However, the evidence suggests that the young man's death was more sinister than a mere accident. The police investigation reveals a world populated by disaffected teenagers with a jazz soundtrack and a background of murder. As the investigation unfolds, George Gently is drawn into this complex and disturbing world. Alan Hunter's latest book is a gripping portrayal of teenage life on the edge, where speed and violence collide.
