Summary
When Hollywood star Dorothy Dacres plummets six floors from her hotel terrace on the night of her greatest triumph, it initially looks like a tragic accident. But her death is so very convenient to her many enemies that press-man Freddy Pilkington-Soames, who was there on the night she died, begins to suspect foul play. And when cocaine is found in her room, it only complicates matters further.
Soon, Freddy is chasing across London on the trail of drug dealers, in reluctant company with his deadly rival, Corky Beckwith, the most unscrupulous reporter in Fleet Street, who will do anything for a story. With the future of a film studio at stake, can Freddy find the culprit - and get one up on Corky - before he becomes the killer's next victim?

Love this series.
Excellent cast of characters, the locations are as alive as the suspects, great descriptions. A classic who-dunit.

A sure-footed second outing
An entertaining sequel with a couple of riveting set pieces. The narrator does an admirable job with a range of characters, especially with Corky, the unscrupulous reporter.

Not as good as book one
Languid voice of the narrator is unreal and irritating. Plot lacks depth. More of potboiler than an interesting story. Shame.

Dreadful narration
Buy this only if your listening device can speed up the delivery - fortunately my MP3 player can do this otherwise I would have returned it - his drawl is dreadful.
