About this listen

Soft-boiled PI's deadliest case

"Deft tales of murder, complicity and downright evil, gripping narratives which appeal to the lover of good action-packed mystery thrillers. Highly Recommended." (Molly's Reviews)

Freelance reporter and sometime private detective Nick Bancroft is tough enough when he has to be. But he can be soft for the ladies. That's how he ends up at an outdoor band concert with Maggie - a librarian, divorcee, and his very talented lover - and is on hand to witness the murder of the very well-connected private secretary of a very important political figure.

It doesn't earn him any points with the cops that Nick is on the scene before them, and it doesn't earn him any points with certain influential politicians that he won't get off the case. Soon, someone is trying to kill Bancroft. But is it the murderer or just someone who wants to ensure certain well-kept secrets remain well-kept?

This is another great addition to the Nick Bancroft series. It's well written with a host of good well developed characters. Fast paced and action packed it's a real page turner from start to finish. It's amusing in parts and edge of the seat stuff in others. I like the way Nick and Maggie's relationship is developing. Narration is spot on and brings the book to life. Highly Recommended.
I was kindly given a copy of the book by Wordwoose and leave this honest review.

Very good.
