About this listen

For DI Declan Walsh, life is finally returning to normal. Finding a home at DCI Alexander Monroe's Last Chance Saloon Crime Unit, Declan and his team - DS Anjli Kapoor, DC Billy Fitzwarren, Doctor Rosanna Marcos, and her assistant DC Joanne Davey - are still recovering from the fallout connected to their most recent case, while Declan is cleaning out his late father's home in order to move in.

But when Declan's old mentor, now terminally ill with cancer, confesses to a gruesome murder, on the condition that Declan himself takes on the case, Declan and his colleagues find themselves in a race against time to find the real killer before a violent gang war breaks out over it.

But another witness appears, claiming that he knows where Angela's body is buried; in the process revealing another body in Birmingham, identical in every way - including DNA, tattoos, and long repaired skiing injuries.

Now, with both North London and South Birmingham becoming battlegrounds and with vendettas reaching boiling point, Declan Walsh must delve back into the world of Johnny and Jackie Lucas, the East End "Twins" as he tries to discover how one victim can have two identical bodies.

An excellent performance by the narrator and a great story by the author... Lots of twists and turns

A good second book in the series

The plots and characters of this series are complex, and the superb narrator of the audiobooks helps bring all the characters and twists and turns to life. (I’d listen to him read the dictionary.) The narrator also helps me distinguish different characters and made it easier to get a feel for the different gangs in the story.

These stories might appeal to someone who enjoys stories involving spies, gangsters, or perhaps stories set in places in which the main characters have to work within a system in which there’s lots of corruption below the surface in police, politicians, and so forth. Good guys are seeking justice in a corrupt world.

Sometimes horrible behavior is referenced, but the author doesn’t dwell on that sort of thing. Also, there’s minimal use of expletives and sex/romance is alluded to but not described in great detail—which makes it easier to have the audiobook on when other people are around!

Complex and intriguing plot and superb narrator

Definitly will not be disappinted

I sure hope the next one is better. This one was more like an episode out of the sopranos.

Even harder to follow the plot than the last one. But worse than that was their implausibility. May or may not move forward on this one.

Dizzy from all the plot twists
