Summary
Dry Bones That Dream is the seventh novel in Peter Robinson's Inspector Banks series, following on from Wednesday's Child.
It was 2:47 a.m. when Chief Inspector Alan Banks arrived at the barn and saw the body of Keith Rothwell for the first time. Only hours earlier two masked men had walked the mild-mannered accountant out of his farmhouse and clinically blasted him with a shotgun.
Clearly this is a professional hit - but Keith was hardly the sort of person to make deadly enemies. Or was he? For the police investigation soon raises more questions than answers. And who, exactly, is Robert Clavert?
The more Banks scratches the surface, the more he wonders what lies beneath the veneer of the apparently happy Rothwell family. And when his old sparring partner Detective Superintendent Richard Burgess arrives from Scotland Yard, the case takes yet another unexpected twist....

Terrific
This series rarely disappoints. Banks is a fully rounded character and his colleagues are also believable.

Telegraphed twist
Up to the usual standard of this series' police procedural, but the twist was telegraphed from about a third of the way in and it did get teeth-gritting waiting for the penny to drop for the characters. Interest sustained by the various strands of investigation, and generally this series is reliable. Banks himself continues to be a curious blank with no discernible character, but at least that means he doesn't have Terrible Dark Secrets and so on.

Tedious with poor narration
Boring and dated story with truly poor narration. Has put me off this series. The ’twist’ was not a suorise
