Lipstick on your collar... Murder on your mind...

Following the bombshell ending of Kill Your Darlings, Declan Walsh has a new job, a new office and a new remit—but when a City of London art gallery discovers the star of their latest exhibition dead, with only a signed, painted "kiss" on his neck to go on, Declan and his team must investigate a murder that involves brutal vengeance, a family linked to a painting stolen by the Nazis in WW2, and a long-forgotten promise.

But, as the bodycount rises and the motive changes, Declan starts to wonder if the clues are leading towards the killer—or away, while Alex Monroe finds himself the target of a gangland hitman, desperate to stop him testifying at an upcoming trial...

The sixteenth audiobook in a series of procedural crime thrillers featuring DI Declan Walsh and the team of the Last Chance Saloon, Kissing A Killer is perfect for fans of J.D Kirk, L.J Ross, Ian Rankin, Alex Smith, David Gatward, Rachel McLean and Ann Cleeves, among others.

This series is spectacular. Gatland has mastered the art of storytelling, with each scene playing out like a well-made heist film, complete with a ragtag cast of characters that we understand, if not love.

The stories can dip into allegory, but often in ways that are hidden right in front of you until the very end. It's clear he views his audience and sharp and intelligent, making the reader feel like a background actor involved in each scene.

Gatland's passion for the medium comes through as he positively captivates with each story, a collections deserves to easily become "the next big series."

It's been a marvelous escape from the real world and I can't wait for the next volume.

The absolute best

Another great mystery for Declan and the team. The characters in this series are so likable and I love that Gatland continues to bring characters from earlier books.

Love The Last Chance Saloon

This series gets even better as plot convolutions dial down and characters develop in interesting ways. I am sad to find this is the last one available on Audible as of 10/2024 though 6 more were published.

Hope Audible will record more of this great series
