About this listen

The Vinyl Detective plunges into the world of electronic dance music in his seventh adventure.

Expect laughs, LPs, cats and the return of fan favourites, Nevada, Tinkler, Stinky Stanmer and more.

The Vinyl Detective enters the fraught and frenzied realm of electronic dance music.

Lambert Ramkin aka Imperium Dart, techno trickster and ambient music wizard of the 1990s, has gone walkabout, disappearing from his rather palatial home in Kent.

This isn't the first time he's pulled a vanishing act, but he's never been gone so long before and his wife — wives, actually; it's complicated — are worried and hire the Vinyl Detective to find the old rascal.

They theorize that wherever the missing man is, he won't be able to resist turning up at a record fair somewhere in search of 12-inch white label acid house singles, which he collects compulsively.

And no one knows the world of record fairs better than the Vinyl Detective.

They're not wrong…

As good as any of the other Vinyl Detectives - not run out of twist and character nuances yet! Well done and thanks!

Exciting storyline but humour and characters to enjoy!

Just love the cats integral role in the book, Tinkler’s continued dire love life (I imagine him as a Labrador type of human). And as always just a fun bit of escapism. What’s not to like.

A great caper

Excellent

Enjoy this series but I got pulled out of the story twice by characters saying someone was talking Celtic. NO they weren’t. Celtic is not a language. The Celtic languages are Scottish Gaelic, Welsh, Irish, Breton, Manx and Cornish. I suppose I should be happy that they didn’t pronounce it as Sell-Tick…

Celtic is NOT a language. Easy to fact check. Please do a little research, or employ a professional editor who checks details not just spelling and grammar - and I am a Gaelic editor, so I know a thing or two!
