A Death in Valencia by Jason Webster
As Camara untangles these threads, he stumbles into a web of corruption and violence, uncovering deep animosities and hidden secrets, and forcing himself to question his own doubts and desires.
"Camara is the opposite of the conventional `foodie’ detective from Mediterranean fiction.. [Camara’s] perceptions of what is wrong with Spanish society form an original background to a complex thriller" -- Jane Jakeman * Independent *
"Camara is a lively edition to Mediterranean coppery" -- Marcel Berlins * The Times *
"Jason Webster has made Valencia his own... This is Chief Inspector Max Camara’s second outing, and his colourful personality is every bit a match for the vibrant but often trouble home of paella he has to keep safe" -- Henry Sutton * Daily Mirror *
"Our favourite Spanish, flamenco-loving, brandy-drinking inspector (and there are a few) is back" * Sport Magazine *
