Publisher's Summary
READ BY THE AUTHOR HIMSELF! Stuart MacBride who read his previous book for HarperAudio ‘Blind Eye’ was a complete success and we have no doubt that this will be another triumph by MacBride. With his ability to set the scene and goings on of Detective Sergeant Logan McRae this is a must have audiobook.
Richard Knox has served his time, so why shouldn’t he be allowed to live wherever he wants? Yes, in the past he was a violent rapist, but he’s seen the error of his ways. Found God. Wants to leave his dark past in Newcastle behind him and make a new start.
Or so he says.
Detective Sergeant Logan McRae isn’t exactly thrilled to be part of the team helping Knox settle into his new Aberdeen home. He’s even less thrilled to be stuck with DSI Danby from Northumbria Police – the man who put Knox behind bars for ten years – supposedly here to ‘keep an eye on things’.
Only things are about to go very, very wrong.
Edinburgh gangster Malk the Knife wants a slice of the development boom Donald Trump’s golf course is bringing to the Granite City, whether local crime lord Wee Hamish Mowat likes it or not. Three heavies from Newcastle want a ‘quiet word’ with DSI Danby about a missing mob accountant. And Richard Knox’s dark past isn’t done with him yet…

Enjoyable
Another great listen by Stuart.
I wasn’t sure about the narration as it never seems to be a good sign when narrator s change through a series but I got use to him pretty fast on the first book he narrated.
The music at the start was a bit odd as I haven’t come across it before.
Over all a great listen and another great series I am more than happy to continue with.

Great book thrilling right up to the final chapter
Great book, thrilling right up to the final chapter. Read by the author which was interesting, sometimes I had to rewind because I couldn't understand his broad accent. But really enjoyed it. Thank you

Best narration ever!
I wasn't sure what narration from the author himself would be like but it was fantastic - animated, different accents, hilarious.
It gave an insight into how he thought his characters would really sound and behave!
Good storyline also. Thoroughly enjoyed this and have already bought the next (and last book) he both authored and narrated.

Another excellent story from Stuart MacBride
Fast paced, full of action. Poor old Lazza is back in another gritty police procedural. Brilliantly read by the author. Well worth listening to. Bring on the next one.

Excellent series, but a big BUT..
I cannot stand the DI Steele character - or, in fact many of the senior officers - but she is definitely the worst - disgusting, abrasive and abusive. I come from the land Down Under, and we're usually pretty good at taking the p*ss, but that character just makes me angry as. I can handle the blood and gore, I don't care that she's gay.. it's none of those - it's the way she and all the senior officers use and abuse Logan until they break him, and then blame him for for everything (all the time) but especially when he effs up.. that really is psychological abuse, even allowing for Logan not being a perfect human being himself. The other sad thing about this series is that I've always loved the idea of Scotland and admit I probably have a very romanticised view of the way of life there .. but this is putting me off it a bit. Despite all the above though, if I can get past Steele abrading my brain, MacBride tells a good story.

A bit convoluted…
It was difficult listening to the author narrating this. I almost gave up as I couldn’t stand all the squawking voices.
