The Dangerous Stranger - by Simon Mason (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

PRAISE FOR THE RYAN WILKINS MYSTERIES

detective like him. Mason writes quite magnificently. Add to that brilliant plotting and character
drawing that Le Carré would be proud off... well, this is absolutely first class" - STEPHEN FRY

Simon Mason has created crime fiction's most entertaining double act in decades.' - MICK HERRON

'Move over Morse. Simon Mason's Oxford crime novel confounds all our expectations' - VAL McDERMID

'My favorite UK series' - M W CRAVEN
