Standing In The Shadows, Robinson - B+

                         D. C. I. Banks is still running the serious crimes unit in Eastvale and is faced with a skeleton found at a site where a road and shopping centre are going in. Forensics ascertains that it's been underground about five years, but with nothing but bones left, there is not much else anyone can tell. Research ascertains that the land was once owned by a former cop, and that the decedent just might be a crime boss from a nearby town. It's actually worse than that because the the crime boss once was on the police force and worked for the landowner. Together they did a few nasty things that a 'Guardian' reporter remembers well. The 28th in the series and another great one. Sadly, Peter Robinson died in October.
