Bad Boy by Peter Robinson

While DCI Alan Banks is on vacation in America, DI Annie Cabot, his partner, takes charge of what should have been a routine pickup of an illegal handgun. A team is sent in to get the gun and the home owner is shot with a taser and dies. Erin, the girl who stole the handgun from her boyfriend, is distraught with the death of her father.

Tracy Banks, DCI Banks’ daughter and Erin’s roommate, fancies Erin’s boyfriend, Jaff McCready, and without realizing how much danger she is putting herself in, offers him her father's place to stay. Tracy soon realizes she is in over her head when she finds out that McCready has another handgun, drugs and money. Tracy soon wishes she had never gotten involved with McCready. While Annie continues to look for Banks’ daughter, she finds McCready's associates are also looking for McCready. DCI Banks comes back to find his daughter – willing partner or hostage - and McCready before anyone else gets hurt.
