A Death in Custody
Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Brixton in the late 1990s. Delroy Brown, a young black man being held in police custody, dies in a confrontation in his cell with a police officer.
The officer claims to have acted in self-defence but fails to give a satisfactory explanation for being in the dead man's cell.
Chief Inspector Elliott conducts an investigation into Delroy's death, but his enquiries are obstructed by a lack of co-operation from police officers, the activities of a corrupt private investigator - and the legal system itself.
Alison French, a young journalist, Neeta Patel, Delroy's family's solicitor, and Ben Weekes, a black youth worker, join forces to try and find out the truth about Delroy's death, but find themselves in growing danger, as they are drawn into a murky world of violent criminals and police informants.
