Great story and excellent narration
Plenty of twists and turns and the reader is excellent. Other second Howard Linskey book I’ve listened to and I’m looking forward to the next one.

A decent British gangland book
Well told story and some believable characters. Nice to read a UK based tale, makes a real change.

Not the end!
I do hope this does not see the end of David Blake. Great story, gritty, no messing! Well done. Great performance as well.

Terrific story told brilliantly. What happens next?
Having now listened to all 3 David Blake books, I can easily say they are at the top of my best audio book list. The stories are fast paced and really involving with a touch of humour but what really brings the books alive is the brilliant narration. David Nellist brings every character alive for the listener. What happens next? I would love to hear more from David Blake & his 'gangster' friends as I couldn't stop listening to these books, taking every opportunity to immerse myself in their exploits. Highly recommended, more please!

Surprisingly good
Had me hooked from the get go. Loved the narrator too. A gritty thriller that took a while to get going, interesting twists and sub plots.

Another really good book from Howard Linskey
I have listened to all the books in this series and so enjoyed the Geordie humour and accent brilliantly read by David Nellist. The story about a gangster boss romps along and leaves you feeling for the man. The characters are developed through the series and this is the latest and I fear the last in that series. I hope Howard Linksey puts pen to paper soon with another set of books with plots that are as good and challenging as these have been.
