Summary
Paranoia-fuelled Zack Walker has trouble convincing his loved ones to obey his rules for keeping them out of harm's way.
He's even uprooted his family and headed for the tranquillity of the suburbs. But then Zack stumbles upon a body, and a trail of deceit and murder leads right back to his own front door. Suddenly the 'burbs is not looking nearly so safe....
With a killer roaming around their neighbourhood and Zack's overactive imagination in overdrive, he's sure things can't get any worse. But then another local is murdered - and Zack's paranoid tendencies get him implicated in the crime. To protect his family - and avoid being busted for a crime he didn't commit - he's going to have to override his instincts and track down the killer himself.

Good story told well
Very easy to listen too, slow build up but makes you all the more informed when things start happening and the end had me surprised
Another cracking book from Linwood Barclay

Brilliantly funny, departure from normal Linwood B
Brilliantly funny, departure from normal for Linwood B. Very dry humour, made me laugh out loud

A very unusual hero
Zack will drive you crazy because he's so darned stupid. You'll be shouting at him to stop being such a bonehead, but he just goes on, ultimately digging an ever deeper hole for himself.
Yet Barclay, again, makes it work. It's way more kooky that the normal mystery, but if you go the distance with Zack its worth the effort.
I can't say I'm on the edge of my seat for the next in the series, but I know that ultimately I'll read it!

Slow start
A very slow and frustrating beginning- I nearly gave up but glad I didn't. Zac's character was also very frustrating- as indeed it was meant to be. Developed into an entertaining and humorous storyline - very different from the author's previous books. Excellent narration and humorous style. Glad I enjoyed it as I have 3 more from the series to read!!

Zac Walker book 1
The book has quite a slow start but it improves considerably as it develops. The narrator seems well matched to the nuance of the text and this helps bring out some of its lighter moments.

Classic Linwood Barclay
Great to hear his first published work. Different style to his newer stuff but just as enthralling. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
