About this listen

The 4th thriller in the Number One bestselling crime series from the award-winning Stuart MacBride. Panic grips The Granite City as DS Logan McRae heads up a manhunt for ‘The Flesher’ – one of the UK’s most notorious serial killers.

Panic strikes the Granite City…

When an offshore container turns up at Aberdeen Harbour full of human meat, it kicks off the largest manhunt in the Granite City’s history.

Twenty years ago ‘The Flesher’ was butchering people all over the UK – turning victims into oven-ready joints – until Grampian’s finest put him away. But eleven years later he was out on appeal. Now he’s missing and people are dying again.

When members of the original investigation start to disappear, Detective Sergeant Logan McRae realizes the case might not be as clear cut as everyone thinks…

Twenty years of secrets and lies are being dragged into the light. And the only thing that’s certain is Aberdeen will never be the same again.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, usual good story and great characters. Shield your ears from the narrator's mangled "West Midlands" though!

What three words best describe Cameron Stewart’s performance?

Good in parts

Solid stuff as usual, but the narrator?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Cameron Stuart clearly struggles with the Aberdonian accent and often ends up sounding like he is throat clearing which grows to be very irritating. This failing is highlighted by the excellent accents in previous books in this series.

Accent trouble

Not for the fainthearted. Stuart MacBride makes me laugh though he may have to take responsibility for my current aversion to meat.

Yuck!
