It's time to choose: friendship or justice?
Our favourite loveable cop Lt. Andy Bastian is back for his second scintillating case. This time, he heads a gritting and gruesome search for the man who violated a teenage beauty and left her just intact enough to someday tell the tale.
But when his best friend becomes the number-one suspect in the case, Andy becomes one of the star legal attractions. Without an alibi, things look bad for Andy's friend - but can Andy offer to help him and keep his integrity intact..?
Set in the 1960s, A Nice Girl Like You is a pacey, introspective thriller about a cop struggling with in his new suburban community. The second in the gripping Lt. Andy Bastian series, and a must-read for fans of Ross MacDonald and John le Carré.
