About this listen

The public can't know they exist. It could start a panic. The average citizen is perfectly fine with superheroes saving the day or causing mayhem in movies and comic books. But if those suprahumans actually walked among us, what would happen then?

In a crumbling post-war city of the future, private eye Charlie Madison stands in the gap. The last of his kind, a champion of lost causes, he confronts corrupt cops, violent bratva and yakuza, doing whatever he can for the average citizen in need of help. A war veteran with plenty of hardship in his past, he’s not afraid to go toe-to-toe with the powers that be, whether they’re in the criminal underworld or the federal government.

Madison has encountered more than his share of unusual suspects over the years. But this time he's up against something he’s never seen before, on or off the battlefield: people with unnatural abilities. Suprahumans. Gifted ones. Their powers are too incredible to believe, too dangerous in this unstable world. Their existence is a secret guarded by government agents who mindwipe anyone encountering them.

For Charlie Madison, the Suprahuman Secret emerges when a little girl goes missing and no ransom demand is made. He takes the case, but time isn't on his side. After 48 hours in this town, it's unlikely an abducted child will be found in one piece. As the mystery unfolds, Madison uncovers a bizarre truth about the girl that seems impossible. But it could explain why she was kidnapped - and why she might still be alive.

I would have given this story a 5* if I had read it instead of listening to it, as the Narrator was awful! The voice didnt go with the images of the charaters or the time the book was set. It felt like he had not read the story through first to understand it. Also at some points in the story the Russian guys voice went from awful Russian to even worse Irish. It's a shame as the story was really good.

The Narrator let this great story down.

I loved the narrator, I felt it suited the noirish atmosphere of the story. Easy to listen. Not my usual fayre, but I like the Chandler-esque style.

Good narration

I enjoyed the dystopian, Blade Runnerish texture of the stories, with the ever present rain and the clever PI. There were many elements to create pictures in my head. I did find some of the repetitions of detail a bit irritating but this, overall did not hugely impact my enjoyment. The narrator was good generally, but I felt his accents, especially his 'Scottish' accent, lacking. Overall a good listen which carries me along nicely. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Good fun.

The first four of the Superhuman Secret collection by great imagination of the author Milo James Fowler.
Beautifully written short stories a mixture of Science fiction and Mystery perfectly done in a post apocalyptic earth and a private detective Charlie Madison cases.
Every story is futuristic of a detective which suffers from Post traumatic distress disorder and the author got it all on paper perfectly.


As usual, excellent narration by Robert Rossmann.
