About “Nineteen seventy-seven”

A work by David Peace, continuing the Red Riding Quartet as a follow-up to Nineteen Seventy-Four. In Leeds during the summer of Queen Elizabeth's Jubilee, Detective Bob Fraser and reporter Jack Whitehead each work to catch a killer of prostitutes dubbed the "Yorkshire Ripper," while both engage in affairs with the prostitutes they are supposedly protecting, suspecting there may be more than one killer at large.
