About this listen

'A true rising star of crime fiction' Ian Rankin

'Wonderfully grisly and grim, and a cracking pace' James Oswald

'A frantic, pacy read with a compelling hero' Steve Cavanagh

War is coming to No-Man's Land, and Connor Fraser will be ready.

A mutilated body is found dumped at Cowane's Hospital in the heart of historic Stirling. For DCI Malcolm Ford it's like nothing he's ever seen before, the savagery of the crime makes him want to catch the murderer before he strikes again. For reporter Donna Blake it's a shot at the big time, a chance to get her career back on track and prove all the doubters wrong. But for close protection specialist Connor Fraser it's merely a grisly distraction from the day job.

But then another bloodied and broken corpse is found, this time in the shadow of the Wallace Monument - and with it, a message. One Connor has received before, during his time as a police officer in Belfast.

With Ford facing mounting political and public pressure to make an arrest and quell fears the murders are somehow connected to heightened post-Brexit tensions, Connor is drawn into a race against time to stop another murder. But to do so, he must question old loyalties, confront his past and unravel a mystery that some would sacrifice anything - and anyone - to protect.

From Dundee International Book Prize and Bloody Scotland book of the year nominee Neil Broadfoot comes the first gripping thriller in the white-knuckle Connor Fraser crime series.

I chose this book mostly because I love Angus King and i have just finished reading JD Kirk's Jack Logan series (Loved it!!). I'm trying to find smth similar and thought I'd give this a chance. I haven't finished listening to the book but so far I find that the plot is a bit all over the place and I'm having a hard time following the storyline. It jumps too fast between the characters and i have to pause and close my eyes trying to remember which character we're onto now.
The narration, however, is excellent. I thoroughly enjoy Angus King's different voices and his lovely Scottish accent (which is an accent I have only just discovered).

Confused feelings

A muddled plot, characters I couldn't engage with and more an amble in the park than a fast paced thriller.
Nevertheless, I finished it. I think I have been spoiled with Rankin and Oswald, but everyone has to start somewhere!
Nevertheless, the narrator was brilliant and will look out for him!

It may jump about a bit from character to character but trust me just stick with it. Great story, once I got used to the different characters it got easier to follow. Loved the fact that it took place in my home city of Stirling

Added bonus is Angus King narrates.

I enjoyed this but found it a bit hard to keep track. I found myself having to go back and re listen in several places. Overall it was good.

Angus King really is an amazing story-teller. I had not heard of the author before, but took a punt on him because Angus King was narrating. I enjoyed the story and the 'multipy protagonists' angle. Happily, none of whom where too dark and brooding with a troubled past... or as I like to put it - a bit moany and angsty (yawn). I'd listen to Neil Broadfoot again and to Angus King every time!

finding out about conner frazer's past as the story unfolds, his service in the police NI, before leaving and joining a private security firm helps us to understand the workings of his mind as he tries to solve several brutal murders with the help of his old colleague Simon from NI. 10/10

I only found this story when i was searching books read by Angus King as i absolutely love his voice. He is by far, the best narrator.

This book is a brilliant crime thriller witj excellent & believable characters. Not once did it become boring. I shall now binge listen the rest of the series!
