Items related to Thursday Legends (Bob Skinner Mysteries)
A brutal and apparently motiveless murder leads Skinner to suspect his own friends of treachery, in this gripping crime novel of retribution and ultimate justice.
For Deputy Chief Constable Bob Skinner, the Thursday night football game at the local gym has long been an unbroken ritual. Until the savagely mutilated body of a former player is found, and suddenly the Thursday Legends have more to worry about than aching backs and dodgy knees. Former Head of Special Branch Alec Smith made plenty of enemies during his long career - and there is no shortage of suspects. But as Skinner's investigation gathers pace, everything keeps pointing to the Legends themselves. Is someone targeting this disparate group of colleagues and friends in some bizarre scheme of retribution? Or is the murderer one of them? Either way, the hunt for the killer is going to come uncomfortably close to home...

From the Publisher:
These hair-trigger thrillers by Quintin Jardine, one of Scotlandıs top-selling writers, have been praised for their ingenious plotting and powerful emotional drama. With Edinburgh police chief Robert Skinner at the center of the action, they form a first-class, robustly entertaining series of police procedurals.
About the Author:
Also available by Quintin Jardine: Autographs in the Rain, Gallery Whispers, Murmuring the Judges,Skinner's Ghosts, Skinner's Rules, Skinner's Festival, Skinner's Trail, Skinner's Round, Skinner's Ordeal and Skinner's Mission.
Quintin Jardine was born once upon a time in the West - of Scotland rather than America, but still he grew to manhood as a massive Sergio Leone fan. On the way there he was educated, against his will, in Glasgow, where he ditched a token attempt to study law for more interesting careers in journalism, government propaganda, and political spin-doctoring. After a close call with the Brighton Bomb in 1984, he moved into the even riskier world of media relations consultancy, before realising that all along he had been training to become a crime writer. Now, forty novels later, he never looks back.
Along the way he has created/acquired an extended family in Scotland and Spain. Everything he does is for them.
