About this listen

In 1965, five teenage friends fled Glasgow for London to pursue their dream of musical stardom. Yet before year's end three returned, and returned damaged. In 2015, a brutal murder forces those three men, now in their 60s, to journey back to London and finally confront the dark truth they have run from for five decades.

Runaway is a crime novel covering 50 years of friendships solidified and severed, dreams shared and shattered and passions lit and extinguished, set against the backdrop of two unique and contrasting cities at two unique and contrasting periods of recent history.

Really loved this book from beginning to end. Covers 50 years from the 60s. Excellent accurate social history as the backdrop to a murder. Told with humour. Did not want it to end as the characters were all interesting and real. Will certainly listed to more Peter May. Narration was excellent just the right voice.

Love Peter May books but was a little underwhelmed by this one. Guess I was hoping for more an Enzo / Lewis thriller type of read.

Fine, but not gripping
