Never before available in the U.S., the final episode in the Factory Series is another unrelenting investigation with the nameless detective into the black soul of Thatchers England.

The fifth and final book in the authors acclaimed Factory Series was published just after Derek Raymonds death, and so didnt get the kind of adulatory attention the previous four titles in the series got. The book has been unavailable for so long that many of Derek Raymonds rabid fans arent even aware there is a fifth book.

But Dead Man Upright may be the most psychologically probing book in the series. Unlike the others, its not so much an investigation into the identity of a killer, but a chase to catch him before he kills again. Meanwhile, the series herothe nameless Sargent from the Unexplained Deaths departmentis facing more obstacles in the department, due to severe budget cutbacks, than hes ever faced before.

However, this time, the Sargent knows the identity of the next victim of the serial killer in question. But even the Sargents brutally blunt way of speaking cant convince the besotted victim, and hes got to convince a colleague to go against orders and join him in the attempt to catch the killer... before its too late.
