About this listen

A friend in need is a friend indeed. And no one is a better friend than hitman-for-hire Lex Harper.

When a mate from his past ends up in a Bolivian prison, Harper doesn’t think twice about going to his aid. Beatings, rapes and murders are an everyday occurrence in the prison. But the only way to break his friend out is for Harper to put his own life on the line, in a place where death comes quickly and only the strong survive. Getting into the prison is easy enough – but can Harper get out? And how many people will he have to kill to make it back?

Having been brought up on Dan Shepherd I looked forward to Harper's appearance. Its ok, Paul Thornley delivered the book well. Harper is an interesting operator I just couldn't associate myself with 'Scouse".

Good story

Love love love the stand alone Lex novels and this one is the best so far.

Can’t wait for more Lex stories….. stand alone or in the spider series.

Epic story.

Stephen Leather and Paul Thornley - how can you go wrong? I've got them all and this one doesn't disappoint. I listened every chance I got. I did actually scream in frustration at a certain point towards the end, but I won't say why. Really felt for Lex. I had to stop listening for a few minutes I was so peeved! Listen to it!

Another addictive listen
