About this listen

 When Charlie Parker was still a boy, his father, a NYPD cop, killed a young couple, a boy and a girl barely older than his son, then took his own life. There was no explanation for his actions.

Now Parker is working on his most personal case yet: an investigation into his own origins and the circumstances surrounding the death of his father.

The investigation will reveal a life haunted by lies, by secrets kept and loyalties compromised. And by two figures in the shadows, a man and a woman, with only one purpose: to bring an end to Charlie Parker's existence . . .

But I absolutely LOVE this series! If you think of "living" dead people more as spirits or entities then use your credits on this series starting at number 1 and know that you've got a whole load of great listening and fabulous narration. After all, if it's not your "thing" then you can always return it 😊

I don't like zombie books...

An excellent addition to a terrific series of books. This answers a number of points and then poses a number of questions. As usual, superbly read.
