Synopsis

Theodore Boone is the thirteen year old who knows more about the law than most adult lawyers. He certainly never expected to be the victim of crime himself. But then his bike is vandalised, hes attacked while doing his homework and, worst of all, framed for a robbery. When stolen computer equipment turns up in Theos school locker, the police start leaning on him hard. And he is the only suspect. What if he is found guilty? What about his dreams of becoming a lawyer? In a race against time, aided by his renegade uncle, Ike, Theo must find the real felon and reveal the true motivation behind the crimes of which he stands accused.Read by Neil Pearson.

Review

First class crime complete with a lot of emotional intrigue (Mirror)

The Alan Banks mystery-suspense novels are, simply put, the best series on the market (Stephen King)

Banks is one of the most fully-drawn figures in this genre of fiction (New York Times)

Praise for Piece of My Heart and Friend of the Devil (:)

Brilliant! (Jeffery Deaver)

'Peter Robinson has for too long, and unfairly, been in the shadow of Ian Rankin; perhaps PIECE OF MY HEART, the latest in the Chief Inspector Banks series, will give him the status he deserves, near, perhaps even at the top of, the British crime writers' league . . . PIECE OF MY HEART brilliantly interweaves past and present, providing two strands of tension for the price of one, and further enhancing Alan Banks's reputation as one of crime fiction's most appealing cops.' (Marcel Berlins, The Times)

Peter Robinson is good at producing ingenious mysteries, and this one does not disappoint (Susanna Yager, Daily Telegraph)

A police procedural that grips like pliers (Independent on Sunday)
