After four decades on the force, he has a daughter who hates him, a wife who cheats, and a bank account that grows emptier every year. But on London's darker streets, Roberts is a force to be reckoned with. With his partner, the gleefully brutal Detective Sergeant Brant, Roberts looks for every policeman's dream: the White Arrest, a high-profile success that makes up for all their past failures. In \u003ci\u003eA White Arrest\u003c\/i\u003e, their target is a bat-wielding lunatic who knocks off drug dealers. In \u003ci\u003eTaming the Alien\u003c\/i\u003e, they hunt a mysterious hit man who earned his nickname by carrying out a hit while watching Ridley Scott's sci-fi classic. And in \u003ci\u003eThe McDead\u003c\/i\u003e, Roberts and Brant set their sights on a cunning kingpin ruling London's southeast side. Gripping and gritty, Ken Bruen's White Trilogy is an unforgettable noir portrait of London's seedy underworld.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ken Bruen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 145328933X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781453289334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Open Road Integrated Media, Inc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.42h x 5.58w x 1.13d","brand":"Ken Bruen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44043594170623,"sku":"9781453289334","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cd5b0af0-1ad4-4ad0-a2df-1a2de3773d75.jpg?v=1684968059","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-white-trilogy-ken-bruen-9781453289334","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
