About this listen

Sir Charles Huxley kept a dark secret — a secret the former government minister should have taken to the grave.

His son, William, lives an uneventful life in his late father’s shadow. He never planned on becoming a middle-aged bachelor and he definitely didn’t plan a career as a low-level politician, but that is now William’s lot...until it’s not.

One evening, William has a chance encounter which sets off an escalating series of sinister events, culminating in a damning revelation about his father’s past. That revelation drags William into the darkest of blackmail plots.

With his blackmailer having cunningly closed every exit, William is trapped, and faces personal and financial ruin. That is until an odd job man working at his local bar steps forward and offers help.

With no alternative, William is forced to join his peculiar saviour on a desperate mission to stop his blackmailer, and unearth the shattering truth about the wrong’un.

Loving the series. Very cleverly written. Great narrator too. On to the next book in the series now.

Great book!

I'm assuming the the title also refers to the narrator, completely odd intonation, phrasing and delivery. I did enjoy the story though.

Good second book

Excellent 👍

I am a huge Keith A. Pearson fan and have read/listened to all his other books. However, I avoided this one (as I suspect a few others have done) as a result of the several very negative comments on the narration. However, eventually I had to continue the Clement series, so I invested one of my credits on this book.

At first, the prejudice that had inevitably been created in my mind reacted to the narrator's style and I did find it a bit distraction. However this only lasted until half way through Chapter 2, when I stopped thinking about it and just enjoyed the book. By the end, I really couldn't remember what had annoyed me about the narrator. He was fine. So, please don't be put off even if you listen to the 'free sample' and are tempted to decide against the book as a result.

As for the book itself, there was plenty to enjoy. KAP's characters are well sculpted and you really care about them as the book progresses. It's a decent book.

In my view, however, it isn't his best. I know you have to adopt a willing suspension of disbelief when reading a book, but there are quite a few things here which simply wouldn't happen (and I am not talking about Clement's appearance). Without giving too much away, someone in the position of the main protagonist would have known that contacting the police immediately would have avoided all the subsequent problems that arose. There are other examples of silly - irrational and illogical - decisions being taken, but I cannot go into details without revealing too much of the story.

Never mind. It's still a great read and as with all KAP's books, I felt the familiar feeling of disappointment when this one finished.

Don't be discouraged by negative narration reviews

The narrator as others have said let’s this Clement book down.
Imagine a 1980s DJ narrating a book and you would get an idea of what it’s like.
The story is good though so if you can cope with the irritating voice it’s worth a listen.

DJ?
