About this listen

The gripping new thriller in the brilliant Constance Fairchild series, from one of Scotland's foremost crime writers.

On compassionate leave following the death of her mother, Detective Constable Constance Fairchild thought renting a cottage near Aberystwyth, Wales would get her far enough from London to finally relax. But trouble always seems to find Con, and it's not long before she is cooling off in a police station cell after defending herself from two would-be rapists.

In custody she meets a young Ukrainian woman, Lila, who confides in Con that she's been forced by her manipulative boyfriend into prostitution and running drugs. Fearing for her life, she has run away from him, only to end up in the cells.

Con offers to help, but when her cottage is ransacked, and Lila subsequently disappears, she realises she's stumbled into very dangerous company. International drug smugglers and ruthless people traffickers - those who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets. Out here at the end of the line, will Con find that there's nowhere left to run?

Difference between night and day

Tony McClean series is outstanding. Dark, gritty, characters crafted, plot intriguing, just enough dark magic to be almost believable and a storyline that makes you want the next book.
So what on earth is the author thinking by producing this pot boiler drivel? It's truly terrible. The main character Constance Fairchild. Enough said but she is called Con. By the end of the story all you can think of is Conned out of a credit. She seems to be a super human female too, which makes it even morel ridiculous. Im sorry but "Con" beats up 2 large men, gets pushed off a cliff, survives by being licked by a dog, bathed in some water pool and drinking coffee, survives being coshed over the head, thrown in caves, manages to escape because she can of course pick all types of locks, fights her way off a cliff top by another 2 men, saves a man by pulling him up over a cliff, throws a man off a boat in rough seas, escape gunshots, throws another man off a boat, gets washed up on rocks, manages to give a full brief of what happened, after changing out of wet clothes, then driving 400 miles to Scotland in an old banger. Obviously a brief summary. I finished the book and most of it was background noise. Disappointed as perhaps this idea and character could have led somewhere. But then again...
