After years behind bars, former drug kingpin Bosco Maximuke is back on the streets, insisting he’s turned over a new leaf, and determined to win back the trust of his daughter.

But when members of the criminal network that replaced him start turning up dead, suspicion falls squarely on Bosco. With old enemies closing in, and a trail of bodies stretching from Inverness to the most remote corners of the Highlands, one thing is clear - someone is settling scores.

And then Bosco does the unthinkable. He asks DCI Jack Logan for help.

Logan wants nothing to do with him. Their history is bloody, bitter, and far from buried. But complicating matters is the fact that Bosco’s teenage daughter, Olivia, now lives under Logan’s roof.

With pressure mounting and the line between justice and revenge growing ever thinner, Logan must navigate a case where nothing is as it seems, and where trusting the wrong person could cost him everything.

Because in the Highlands, the devil you know might just be the most dangerous of all…BETTER THE DEVIL is the 22nd book in the internationally bestselling DCI Jack Logan series, from multi-award-winning Scottish crime fiction author, JD Kirk.

Really enjoyed having the team back together again. Angus King is a genius brings the story to life. Glad to see author seems to have found his way again last couple of stand alones haven’t been of usual quality or maybe it was the narrator that let them down? More please.

I love the whole series of the Jack Logan detective novels. The combination of the excellent writing by JD Kirk and the equally excellent narration of Angus King is absolutely superb. I am blind and listen to Audiobooks every day. I have listened to thousands over the years and find myself waiting with baited breath for the next Jack Logan novel to drop. Well done to the writer and the narrator you are a fabulous combination. Keep up the good work(please).

The gritty storyline combined with rib tickling humour.

I've waited months for this and it's not disappointed. JD Kirk and Angus King should be available on the NHS. So Mr Kirk......when's no. 23 coming out? Great entertainment, each and every book.

What a Day A new Logan !!!

Angus is stellar as always. Enjoyed it very much even if it did follow a similar story to a brilliant buddy cop comedy towards the end. Lots of twists and turns and laugh out loud moments.
