A brand new series from CWA award-winning author, Scott Hunter
April 1968. DC Cameron Kyle is struck by a bullet at a bungled stakeout.
He survives, but it’s clear that his old self didn’t. Once courteous and cautious, he now finds himself uncharacteristically outspoken, impatient, intolerant. His surgeon warns him that, due to the inoperable location of the bullet fragment, Kyle could die anytime; his psychologist’s prognosis isn’t much better – the words she chooses to describe his personality changes include borderline and psychotic.
Kyle is struggling to come to terms with his uncertain new existence when his one-time girlfriend pays him an unexpected visit. He is reluctant to see her, but immediately picks up on her agitated state of mind. Rebecca explains that she has been tasked with the rehabilitation of a dangerous lifer, convicted killer Kenneth Munday, and is anxious to share her concerns.
Kyle learns that Munday has escaped and is on the run with Rebecca in tow. Kyle’s old boss, DI Patterson, wants to know all about her visit. Did Rebecca let slip anything that might have a bearing on Munday’s whereabouts?
Kyle sends Patterson packing with some choice words from his new arsenal of bluntness, but when Rebecca’s lawyer boyfriend turns up asking for help, Kyle must set aside his animosity and join the hunt for Munday. But will he be too late to save Rebecca?
The Fragile Cage is the pilot novel of a brand new new crime series featuring ex-DC Cameron Kyle.
How does this sound? A journey back in time to an era of no mobile phones, no internet, no 24/7, no political correctness and great music...oh, and page-turning action and excitement too....
Yep, that's what I thought.
So here it is....

I found this book interesting for a police procedural. The story made a point of highlighting Cameron Kyle’s now psychopathic personality but I did not really feel it in the book. Perhaps this will emerge more in later installments. It was interesting following the British police system and locations. At time following the British titles for officers and slang (e.g. a flashlight being a torch or the movies being flicks) was a bit challenging. Fortunately I was familiar with them from previous British TV.
Aubrey Parsons did an excellent job with the narration and voicing of the characters. He has a very strong regional British accent which I did find hard to understand at times. Otherwise he was enjoyable to listen to.
I enjoyed this book and may follow up with future installments.
