About this listen

The new book in the brilliant Constance Fairchild series, from one of Scotland's foremost crime writers.

'THE NEW IAN RANKIN' Daily Record

'OSWALD'S WRITING IS A CLASS ABOVE' Express

Suspended from duty after her last case ended in the high-profile arrest of one of Britain's wealthiest men, DC Constance Fairchild is trying to stay away from the limelight. Fate has other ideas . . .

Coming home to her London flat, Constance stumbles across a young man, bloodied, mutilated and barely alive. She calls it in and is quickly thrown into the middle of a nationwide investigation . . . It seems that the victim is just the latest in a string of similar ritualistic attacks.

No matter that she is off-duty, no matter that there are those in the Met who would gladly see the back of her, Con can't shake her innate determination to bring the monsters responsible for this brutality to justice.

Trouble always seems to find her, and even if she has nothing to hide, perhaps she has everything to lose . . .

Exciting sequel to first book with some clever overlap with Inspector MacLean series. Con is growing as a character and, personally, I can't wait for next one!

Great second book in series

It’s not that I don’t like these Constance Fairchild books, they are perfectly okay and a good use of a credit... but they are just nowhere near as good as James Oswald’s Inspector McClean books. For example, Oswald clearly knows Edinburgh like the back of his hand but has he even visited London? He writes a male protagonist very well but can’t quite get his head around writing a female protagonist. The narrator doesn’t help as she can’t do a Scottish accent. So these books are okay, but I’d recommend you start with his others which are much better.

I really enjoyed this 2nd Con Fairchild book and hope they continue. There is a truth in misogynistic attitude of previously male dominated jobs and the false assumption of money attached to title. Overall though the stories are great!

Love these Books

Enjoyed the first book in this new series more. Although it was great to have characters from the Inspector McClean books included, the different narrator made them less interesting and just seem ‘wrong’! I really think these books need a different narrator as there is no excitement and I was almost relieved when it finished as I just wasn’t drawn in enough and frankly didn’t care what happened!
Please just stick to the original and the best!

Slightly disappointed
