Title/AuthorGoing Underground – Michael Leese
Autistic detective Jonathan Roper is the ultimate outsider – but you’d want him by your side.
Sir James Taylor is the sort of billionaire who gives capitalism a good name. Except he’s gone missing after getting out of his Rolls Royce in the centre of London. Scotland Yard is going nowhere fast. No body. No ransom. No clues. A gruesome discovery at an East End warehouse has the Prime Minister asking questions. They’re going to have to send for Jonathan Roper. He may be the only detective who can find the answers. But not everyone is pleased. He is a challenge; young, gifted and autistic.
He’s great on analysis, not so good with people. That’s his bosses’ problem, not his. In a world as complex and dangerous as this, they have to make space for him.
