Summary
Ex-Police Scotland detective Bob Hoon has made himself some powerful enemies.
Following his brutal search for the missing daughter of an old army colleague, Hoon is being hunted by the Loop, a secretive criminal cabal with members in very high places and a tendency to eliminate all those who stand against it.
Unfortunately for them, Hoon has never been one to back down from a fight, and he isn’t about to start now. Instead, he’s going to burn their whole damn organization to the ground.
But first, he’s going to have to get inside.
He may be a foulmouthed, hard-drinking psychopath with a death wish, but Bob Hoon is about to do something he hasn’t done in years.
He’s going undercover.
Hear the second explosive Robert Hoon Thriller from million-selling crime author JD Kirk - perfect for fans of Lee Child, Robert Ludlum, and David Baldacci.
“Jog on, Bond. Hoon is the hero we need!” (Angus King)

"Elephants are irrelevant."
Scottish ex-detective Robert Hoon might have brought down a nasty trafficking ring but he'd failed to find Caroline, his old buddy's missing daughter. So he continues his search in London's underworld, teaming up with a lone MI5 operator and a young boxer, desperate for money. He will not give up on his promise to find Caroline, whatever the consequences. Even if he can't find a square sausage ...
Southpaw, the follow up to Northwind, continues it's predecessors briliance. Great characters expertly developed, fascinating story line, a real sense of (unwelcome) plausibility, lots of action but not at the expense of story. And it's funny, too. All this Audiobook needs to be pretty near perfect is a really good narrator. And it has one in Angus King. His performance as Hoon, the hard drinking Scot with an apparent death wish, determined to make good on his debt to his old army colleague, is beautifully played and his accent is superb - and still understandable. King uses pacing and cadence to bring the action even more to life and all of the protagonists are given individual voices. An excellent performance further enhancing an already successful mystery thriller.
This book would stand alone but is far better after reading the predecessor, Northwind, similarly expertly exciting and also.read by Angus King. Both are highly recommended unless the reader objects to violent action and language: after all, Hoon is ex army, ex police, hard drinking, and very angry.

A true character like no other. I miss him already
There's no one quite like Bob Hoon! A loveable rogue with a mouth that would make a sailor blush, and we love him for it. Despite the grittiness of this fantastic story, there are many laugh out loud moments courtesy of Hoon - and performed perfectly by Angus King!
Thank you to the brilliant JD Kirk for bringing Hoon, Logan & Co into my life and heart. Please never stop writing!

Fabulous
Fabulous sequel to Northwind. Robert Hoon is the same awkward foul-mouthed character as in the first novel and loses none of his charm in this next thrilling story.
