About this listen

Bringing together six short stories - two of which are previously unpublished - One Last Dram Before Midnight is perfect for fans of Denzil Meyrick.

These tales take us from Jim Daley's early days pounding the beat in Glasgow as a young constable to a lighthearted whisky smuggling romp involving Hamish and some ghostly pipers.

More danger with a dash of humour from DCI Daley

A series of short stories featuring DCI Daley and his friend DS Scott. Some are set in present day Kinloch, and some in Glasgow when Daley and Scott were young officers. All make for a great read. Entertaining, compelling, and DS Scott as funny as ever. Wonderful!

My favourite books and the best storyteller!

My favourite books and David Monteith is the best to do them justice. I do hope there will be more to the series.

Excellent and unexpected…

I had my doubts before I started this ‘book’ having listened to this series back to back with this being the last at time of release. I was hoping it wasn’t just a brief summary or excerpts from the previous books… it isn’t!
I thoroughly enjoyed hearing these smaller stories that definitely did not lack substance or entertainment value for the reader. I strongly encourage fans of Daley and Scott to continue to enjoy them with these new episodes!
