Critics Review
‘A fascinating insider’s account of a murder detective’s life in South London in the 1980s. Alan Jackaman couples his personal experience investigating a brutal double murder with his skills as a writer and storyteller to give us a well-paced whodunnit. Peppered with colourful tales of policing 40 years ago, Alibi is also the story of a son’s battle for justice and a police officer’s relentless work to try to achieve it.’- Tom Pettifor, Crime Editor, Daily Mirror
