About this listen
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Grey Ghost by Clive Cussler and Robin Burcell, read by Scott Brick.
In 1906, a groundbreaking Rolls-Royce prototype known as the Grey Ghost vanishes from the streets of Manchester, England, and it is only the lucky intervention of an American detective named Isaac Bell that prevents it from being lost forever. Not even he can save the good name of Marcus Peyton, however, the man wrongly blamed for the theft, and more than a hundred years later, it is his grandson who turns to Sam and Remi Fargo to help prove his grandfather's innocence.
But there is even more at stake than any of them know. For the car has vanished again, and in it is an object so rare that it has the capacity to change lives. Men with everything to gain and a great deal to lose have a desperate plan to find it - and if anybody gets in their way? They have a plan for that, too.

Excellent story that goes along at a great pace with as with all Fargo Adventures.
You don’t need to have listened to the whole series as lots of recaps.
Really enjoyed the ride and the story of the ghosts adventures in time.
The bad points.
ENGLISH...
We don’t speak like we are all in a Mary Poppings Movie (goor Blimley Governor).
If you are writing for an English character use correct words.
For our American cousins.
Trash is Rubbish
It’s a Fire Engine
Backyard is garden
Block is street
Dumpster is Bin
Why would a 1906 Viscount use American words. Hell the little county had only been around a few years.
Scott Bricks English accent was terrible to be honest but he gave it a go.
Overcome that and it’s a great listen
Great story

I really enjoyed the audio book except for one thing, Scott Brick is a great narrator and I sometimes by audio books because he narrated them, but this book he seemed to miss the mark, the book is based around Manchester, England, Scott has tried to provide various dialects, American for Sam and Remi, Posh for the gentry and it seems COCKNEY for everyone in Manchester who isn't the gentry.
That's the only let down for this book and to be fair will only people from the UK will get this.
Great Story but ......
