About this listen

An explosive international thriller from the Hollywood legend and British icon Sir Michael Caine.

DCI Harry Taylor has no respect for red tape or political reputations - but he's great at catching criminals.

And all his unorthodox skills will be needed as an extraordinary situation unfolds on his doorstep: a metal box of radioactive material is found at a dump in Stepney, East London, but before the police can arrive it is stolen in a violent raid.

With security agencies across the world on red alert, it's Harry and his unconventional team from the Met who must hit the streets in search of a lead. They soon have two wildly different suspects, aristocratic art dealer Julian Smythe in London and oligarch Vladimir Voldrev in Barbados. But the pressure is on. How much time does Harry have, and how many more players will join the action, before the missing uranium is lighting up the sky?

Deadly Game is a compelling, fast-paced audiobook of international intrigue and twisting suspense from a legendary actor and British icon, who now proves himself to be a first-rate thriller writer.

Is this a good book? Frankly I have no idea. I thought I could put up with a lot but Marsan's performance is truly awful, whoever selected him should be shot. The whole narrative blurs into an nebulous mass in Marsan's hands, characters are indistinct and readily forgotten, the monotonous tone he manages creates a type of amnesia. The only reason I stuck with it was to try and work out what was wrong with his delivery, it's something special. There's a frailty to the delivery, each word comes out dry and brittle, there's no energy, accents seem to boil off by the end of pronunciation. In short buy the book or risk it being spoilt.
