About this listen

The gripping new Ben Hope thriller from the Number One bestseller.

When ex-SAS major Ben Hope is urgently recalled to the UK from his base in France to assist with a family crisis, little does he know that he’s about to be drawn into one of the most dangerous missions of his career: his son Jude has been accused of a brutal murder, and all the evidence points to his guilt.

To prove Jude’s innocence Ben embarks on a wild chase, facing up against mysterious killers and piecing together a fragile web of clues. What connects an all-female criminal gang from the early 1900s called the Forty Elephants, a century-old vendetta and a shadowy government conspiracy that claimed millions of innocent lives?

Along the way Ben teams up with his former acquaintance, rugged Detective Tom McAllister. They’re heading for a showdown in the wilds of Cornwall, and the villains have no intention of letting Ben come out of it alive . . .

Another excellent book!
I am happy to say that Scott Mariani is still a master weaver of intrigue and adventure involving our hero Ben Hope.
Very good story indeed and as usual I sympathised with Ben’s actions and thoughts whilst also occasionally shouting “..just smack him Ben!”
It was good to be re-acquainted with Tom McAllister & Radar his dog; which of course is excellent as Scott’s new series with McAllister is due soon.
As always I am now impatient for Ben Hope’s next adventure.
Well narrated by the talented Colin Mace.
(I did notice a few odd edits which made a few bits sound ‘hesitated’ - but the story was too full on to stop & note) Enjoy.

Another Excellent Adventure for Ben Hope

Not as much action as many of the books but it moves along like a UK based detective book. The prison scenes are predictable and stereotyped something that you don't normally get with Ben Hope books. It feels like the author had a good plot but didn't make too much effort in the development of the overall story. I still loved it though because Ben Hope is good even when the story is average.

Another Great Read

The whole package plot, reading and thread from previous books.
Never ending fun, looking forward to the remaining books in the series.

Ben Hope a modern day hero.
