About this listen

SOMETIMES, TO BREAK OUT . . . YOU HAVE TO BREAK IN

Safe Hands is the first in a new British crime series featuring safecracker, Mickey Blake.

A RETIRED SAFECRACKER

Mickey Blake was the best, able to open any safe with only his heightened sense of touch. For the last 18 years, he’s been retired, hiding out in Spain and trying to save his marriage. But now his wife is dying, he owes money to the wrong people and time is running out.

A DESPERATE MOTHER

Living in a rundown seaside town, Hazel is a single mum driven to kill to avenge her friend and stop her teenage son being sucked into a life of crime.

ONE LAST JOB

Mickey meets Hazel when he returns to the UK for one last job—to open a huge vault inside a gangland casino. Before that, he needs to deal with a dead body, a corrupt undercover cop, an unhinged crime boss and a son that hates his guts. Can Mickey and Hazel get out clean?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I took a punt, as it's by a new author, and I'm so glad I did. I found it equally as entertaining as some books by the more established authors I listen to. Give it a go. I'm sure you'll be glad you did. I can't wait for book two!
