About this listen
"The woman's cries floated down the passage and bubbled out through the front door in helpless, anguished, tortured spasms. It was a sound that echoed down the ages. The horror of mothers from any species that might ever have lived on the planet. A parent trying to deal with the impossible: the death of her young ones. It was a sound to chill the blood."
A notorious killer escapes from prison. Heart-rending scenes show the kinds of trauma faced by victims of crime. The thrilling action takes place against a tapestry of courage and heroism in daily clashes between the forces of law and order on the one hand and brutal crime on the other.
©2015 Ian Patrick (P)2016 Ian PatrickWould you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Most definitely. It is thrilling all the way with such lovely human (and canine) dimensions that kept me glued to the earphones.What other book might you compare Death Dealing to, and why?
Anything from Stieg Larsson or Lee Child or James Patterson or... you name them... the top thriller writers. This is right up there with all of them.Which character – as performed by Ian Patrick – was your favourite?
I like the hero Jeremy Ryder. Just like Jack Reacher. Is it coincidence that they have the same initials? Maybe. But then there's also John Rebus, I suppose. And Jack Ryan. And... ha! now I can think of quite a few JR's.If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Canine Force in the fight against crimeAny additional comments?
I really liked the balance of human drama and crime-busting.Heart-warmingly exciting thriller

Jeremy Ryder is my hero. Big, quiet, sharp, and witty. But really tough on hard crime.Which scene did you most enjoy?
Where Jeremy takes down the six thugs. My favourite scene without question.If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Cop revenge.Any additional comments?
The cops are fun. They are witty and believably real all the time, and their wisecracks are not forced, but very touching in parts because the wit disguises great tenderness for each other.Amazing and terrifying

A fantastic character called Sugar Bear. He's the best. Intelligent guy. Very intuitive, sharp, watches everyone closely, and keeps an eye on everything and everyone. He's the man, for sure.Have you listened to any of Ian Patrick’s other performances? How does this one compare?
No. Not yet. I look forward to listening to more by him. I have to say that his narration is very good, but the voice could have been adapted more for the women characters.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
