Nineteen Eighty

The third novel in David Peace's acclaimed Red Riding Quartet sees Yorkshire terrorised by the Ripper while the corrupt police familiar from Nineteen Seventy Four and Nineteen Seventy Seven continue to prosper. Weaving his own extraordinary fiction around the terrible history of the time, David Peace has once again produced a thriller that goes above and beyond the limits of the genre to provide a powerful portrait of a time and a place gone very wrong.
