Then Came Violence by John Dudley Ball

Then Came Violence Reviews

  Pasadena detective Virgil Tibbs returns early from a holiday to discover everything in his home has been removed & only the head of the police department knows what's going on.
  Author John Ball puts together another great novel where Tibbs becomes involved in three cases at once & despite the pressure he's under Tibbs remians his usual cool & calculating self.
  Then Came Violence, like all of John Ball's Virgil Tibbs novels, is a well plotted crime story peopled with characters you can really belive in. I'm already looking forward to reading Singapore, his final novel featuring the legendary Virgil Tibbs.

  Time doesn't stand still in Virgil Tibbs' world, so we find out protagonist dealing with the changing political landscape of the late 70's - including the export of urban violence to the suburbs and an unstable geopolitical landscape - two unlikely storylines that meld well together. .

  Not my favorite selection from the series, but it was still enjoyable.
