Summary

 They say moving house is one of the most stressful things you can do. Well, as far as Dan Starkey's concerned, "they" can stick it where the sun don't shine because right now helping his wife with the unpacking is the least of his worries. No sooner than Dan has moved into his new Belfast home, his best mate, Mouse, is murdered, leaving him to catch a killer, become editor of the obscenely successful scandal magazine, "Belfast Confidential", and compile the much-coveted Power List.©2006 Colin Bateman; (P)2006 W.

loved it. Happened upon this author by accident and have now bought everything available. I love the style, dark humour that makes you laugh out loud. I felt like I'd lost an old friend when I finished it, and I want more..........

pure brilliant

Although it's amusing and quite quirky, the author tends to lay on the Irish 'bit' rather too much for my taste. In addition, the book meanders along part thriller, part human interest without really getting anywhere - that's why I call it frustrating.

Well read, certainly, but in the end an unsatisfying read and I found it (too much of) an effort to keep listening to the end.

A frustrating read

At times laugh out loud - and definitely back to his usual form. Can’t wait for the next in series.

Very funny

great entertainment

This was the best audio book I listened to on holiday this year, the plot is great funny imaginative, the characters are brilliant. The storyline makes you not want to turn the book off. I would recommend this to anyone who would like to listen to a refreshing new book. Can't wait for more by the same author.

What a fantastic read!
