About this listen

Arthur Bryant, John May and the Peculiar Crimes Unit is on the trail of an enigma: Mr Fox. His identity is false, and his links to society are invisible. Their search takes them into the vast labyrinth of the Underground, a subterranean world full of legends and ghost stations. Edging closer to what lies beneath the city, are Bryant and May about to uncover something truly bizarre?

After what seems like an age the most recent Bryant and May is now on Audible. Tim Goodman's narration is as good as ever and this books' collection of fascinating London facts is based around the tube network.

The book contains the end of the Mr Fox plot from On the Loose (which is oddly not on Audible yet, hope it's coming soon) and the rather grubby goings on of a group of five students. The two main story lines are intermingled with other smaller but related asides and the whole thing twists more than cat being given a tablet.

I had previously read the paper version, and it's testament to the writer's skills that not only could I not remember 'whodunnit' when I started (which normal for me) I was just as surprised at the end as I was the first time.

If you're a Bryant and May fan then no doubt you'll already have it, for everyone else, the joy these elderly detectives bring has to be experienced. Start with the Water Room and you'll never look back.

New Bryant and May on Audible, at last

Enjoyed this one, not as far-fetched as some and I didn’t find the characters as irritating as in the other books. If you knew Kings Cross 15+ years ago it will bring back a lot of memories and remind you how much the place has changed. St Pancras Old Church & the Camley Street nature reserve where no one really ventured, the Ruby Lounge, the Flying Scotsman strip pub, and the sheer run downness of the place. The history is fascinating.

Typical Bryant and May caper

As always, great story, interesting and quirky characters. The odd snippet of London history thrown in for good measure... I love it.

fabulous!

Absolutely love these stories and read impeccably - total escapism from a crazy world and it’s going to be so disappointing when I’ve finished the lot

Brilliant
