About this listen

Another gripping case for the unstoppable DCI Hanlon from bestselling author Alex Coombs.

A security officer is assassinated.

A small child grieves for his father.

A psychopath commits their first crime...

A frightened Russian woman seeks DCI Hanlon's help in finding her missing husband. Hanlon's not keen on the case. Until she hears a name she recognises only too well. Arkady Belanov, sadistic owner of an exclusive brothel in Oxford is involved.

And when DCI Enver Demirel, her former partner and friend, disappears, Hanlon is determined to solve the case.

Forced into an uneasy alliance with the London underworld, the race to him from the blood-stained hands of the Russian mafia is underway...

Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Lisa Regan and Mark Dawson.

This book was previously published as *A Hard Woman To Kill by Alex Howard.*

She’s a hard case for sure, but she’s usually on the side of right. Great romp with lots of edge of seat moments. An enjoyable read.

I love DCI Hanlon

I still can’t get over my disappointment that Handlen PI is totally forgotten in this series.

But this book is entertaining enough

This story is very gripping, hard to stop listening and get on with life’s chores.

Extremely exciting

Yet again the novel was spoilt by bad narration. Unnatural gaps within sentences, not in line with the punctuation. Bad pronunciation. Other Alex Coombes novels have been enjoyable with a different narrator. Shame really as the plot and storyline is not being represented to it's best.

Great novel.
