When a young Black student is found dead and a white supremacist group emerges as a prime suspect, Banks must navigate a deeply unsettling web of hatred, community tension, and institutional pressure. Robinson writes with a sharp, unflinching tone that refuses to shy away from the uglier currents running beneath small-town English life, balancing procedural precision with genuine moral weight. The novel illustrates how prejudice and violence can shatter the illusion of rural tranquility, while Banks himself remains one of crime fiction's most compelling and psychologically nuanced detectives. Fans of thoughtful, socially aware police procedurals will find this installment both riveting and deeply resonant.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48820246708443,"sku":"2026100005224-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/da18396d-17e5-45bc-ad1b-62b2c2eda0f1.png?v=1780055589","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100005224-secondhand-blood-at-the-root-an-inspector-banks-mystery","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
