Interpretation Toward Books Nor Will He Sleep (Inspector McLevy #4)
The streets of 1887 Edinburgh seethe with youthful anarchy as two rival gangs of students, Scarlet Runners and White Devils, try to outdo each other in wild exploits. After a pitched battle between them, an old woman is found savagely battered to death in Leith Harbour. Enter Inspector James McLevy, a little more grizzled, but unchanging in his fierce desire to mete out justice. As the inspector delves further he meets up with one Robert Louis Stevenson, author of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, in the city to bury his recently deceased father.

Wonderful seriesThis is a thoroughly enjoyable book that keeps you entertain with the story line. Here you have murder, young men's high jinks and a famous author all mix together into a "who done it". Inspector McLevy must make sense of all of this along with dealing with his unfamiliar feelings of the fair sex. Here's hoping for further escapades of Inspector McLevy.Love Inspector McClevy
David Ashton's stories of Inspector McLevy always have enough drama to keep me interested. It is true that they can sometimes lose me somewhere in the middle for a bit but I always manage to catch up to the characters. I also was intrigued by Robert Louis Stevenson's character in the book and of course had to google a bit more about his life to get a full picture of who he was. His character added a great deal to this novel and I think Robert Louis Stevenson in real life lived such an exciting
Solid final (so far, as he has switched to a series centred around Jean Brash) entry to the series. Unfortunately I guessed the murderer the second they appeared, but at least the why was a reveal. Unforgivable mistake though, referring to Queen Victoria as The House of Windsor, which didn't exist until her grandson invented it, to avoid anti-German feeling in the First World War, some 15 years, two Houses and Kings later. She was of course the last Monarch of The House of Hanover, her son and
Three Cheers!I love this series! Hopefully there will be more to come! The characters are awesome; McLevy is a hoot! I so enjoy the humor and use of the Scottish vernacular. Carry on, McDuff!
A fine addition to the Inspector McLevy series. Privileged students battle each other in gangs and break the peace with cruel pranks in various parts of Edinburgh. Meanwhile, the author Robert Louis Stevenson has returned to his native city for the funeral of his father. The student battles escalate and an elderly woman is found, battered to death. McLevy believes there is a link with Stevenson's past as another woman - a former lover - is found dead at the door of the Stevensons' Edinburgh
