About this listen

What price would you pay for fame?

Following a convention in the Scottish Highlands, eight social media influencers vanish without a trace, leaving their followers–and families–in a state of shock, and the police clueless as to their whereabouts.

And then, the livestreams begin.

Broadcast live from their squalid underground cells, the young influencers are forced into a sadistic battle for survival.

With each livestream, their captor pits them against each other in a twisted competition for likes. The influencer with the fewest positive reactions faces a gruesome end–live on camera.

As the likes increase and the death toll rises, DCI Jack Logan and his team must traverse both the Scottish wilderness and the darkest corners of the internet to try and save the remaining captives.

But how do you catch a killer who is always one click ahead?

A Killer of Influence is the 20th book in the multi-million selling DCI Jack Logan series from internationally bestselling Scottish crime author, JD Kirk.

JD Kirk does it again

Thrilling story that carefully weaves in all our favourite characters (and a couple of not so much liked) at just the right moment.
As usual avid followers of DCI Jack Logan and his team are kept in suspense to the very end; an end that I’ve never been able to predict!
Angus King gave the exemplary performance we’ve come to expect - he is the voice of these characters after all - he brings them to life.
Highly recommended and bring in the next!

Magical Story teller

Every book I have listened too or read by JD Kirk and Angus King have been totally absorbing. Fast moving exciting and characters like old friends. This Killer of influence should have to be the most complicated and enjoyable, I love the way JD manages to work in his other character like Hoon, DI Filsen and even refers to Dave Gatwoods D I Harry Grimm. This only makes the story more alive! Love them all and hope there will be a book 21❤️

Bloody marvelous!

The perils faced by DCI Logan and team had me quaking at times, but again JD Kirk delivers the perfect blend of suspense with a liberal dash of humour! These characters are so beautifully drawn that the threads of their development in previous episodes continue to be perfectly woven. The reader is left feeling like they’re sharing an inside joke with old friends. I hope they return soon…

Another winner!

From the first sentence I was engaged & it felt like I was home.
The storyline was brilliant, the ending a surprise.
Looking forward to the next book in this series.
