About this listen

What is the secret capable of destroying a glorious achievement and a source of national pride?

A secret so enormous it could not be told for many years, until now.

British undercover cop Steve Regan experiences a baptism of fire when he investigates "the secret".

New and old Steve Regan fans can now discover him at the beginning of his crime-busting career in this gripping thriller.

Join Regan in this prequel to the Steve Regan Undercover Cop Thriller series by tagging along with Steven Hanrahan as a young C.I.D. detective in 1970’s Liverpool until his world is shattered by a tragic event involving a fatal car crash.

The young detective is hand-picked for a dangerous undercover assignment. On accepting the role, he moves to London - the "Smoke," adopting a new identity.

The legend of Steve Regan is born with a foolproof backstory so he can infiltrate the international crime gang behind England’s biggest sporting secret. A secret so shocking it could taint the image of British sport irreversibly if it were ever divulged.

What is that secret? Is it worth dying for?

A compelling thriller of a novella packed with suspense. Discover Stephen Bentley’s undercover cop series today.

One tragic moment changes everything

Received as an audio review copy from Story Origin, this is an honest review. Narrated by Alan R Gron, who delivers the right amount genuine snarky wit that elevates this quirky unique prologue. Once he has it all: a lovely wife and daughter and a good job but then it all ruthlessly shattered when he lost his family... and maybe even his own identify. Then a very unique job falls into his lap, an undercover job that will provide the birth of Steve Reagan and give him a future he desperately needs. His first job was keeping a secret from destroying Britain's national obsessive love of sports.

Highly recommended.

A tragic beginning to an impressive career.

So this is how Stephen got into undercover police work. His first gig. Was there sports corruption? A well written, well told prequel.
I received a review audio copy of this book through Story Origin. I have listened to a few of Stephen Bentley stories and Alan R. Gron IS the voice of Steve Regan. It is very distinct with the right accents and some tongue in cheek humor. Very enjoyable. 5 stars for him as well.

Good Prequel

Good short prequel to the Steve Regan Undercover Cop Thrillers Series. This is a good introduction to the series. Alan R. Gron did a good job bringing this story to life. #StoryOrigin
