- Book Synopsis
- Alibi is a gripping account of crime detection in 1980s London in which dedicated CID officers work side-by-side with the flotsam and jetsam of the Metropolitan Police. Recalling a time when being posted to Clapham served as 'punishment' for a range of disciplinary offences, Alibi describes how crimes were solved by a rag bag of officers, some more concerned with a lunchtime pint than policing tasks. The book centres on an horrific real-life double murder in which a suspect was charged but acquitted at the Old Bailey. It examines the inner workings of international drug dealing and the extraordinary deception and subterfuge of those involved. The result is a dark time capsule into which the author injects the expertise and powers of observation of his earlier true crime writings.
