About this listen
2014: The Commonwealth Games are coming to Glasgow and security is extra tight, particularly after a mysterious bomb explodes in nearby rural Stirlingshire. As the opening ceremony for the Games draws ever closer, the police desperately seek the culprits. But Detective Superintendent Lorimer has other concerns on his mind. One is a beautiful red-haired woman from his past whose husband dies suddenly on his watch.
Then there is the body of a young woman found dumped in countryside just south of the city who is proving impossible to identify. Elsewhere in Glasgow people prepare for the events in their own way, whether for financial gain or to welcome home visitors from overseas. And, hiding behind false identities, are those who pose a terrible threat not just to the Games but to the very fabric of society.
Alex Gray's stunning new Lorimer novel, set against the backdrop of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, brings the vibrant city to life in a race to stop the greatest threat the city has ever known.

Enjoyable
Alex Grey is a woman. So the occasional bit of sexism in her novels always puts me on the back foot a bit. I rationalise it by reminding myself that this is the character, not the authors voice, but sometimes... well. Apart from these occassional disagreements, I've been thoroughly enjoying the adventures of Lorimer and co. This particular one -as all of them - is well written and engaging. Joe Dunlop is an excellent narrator. His talent for voices really makes these stories come alive, and I have no trouble listening to him for hours.
