About this listen

Irish runaway. Insomniac. Functioning alcoholic.
Life is about to get complicated for DC Donal Lynch.

When a young woman is kidnapped, Donal is brought in to deliver the ransom money. But the tightly-planned drop off goes wrong, Julie Draper is discovered dead, and Donal finds his job on the line – a scapegoat for the officers in charge.

But when Donal is delivered a cryptic message in the night, he learns that Julie was killed long before the botched rescue mission. As he digs further into the murder in a bid to clear his own name, dark revelations make one thing certain: the police are chasing the wrong man, and the killer has far more blood on his hands than they could even imagine.

A gripping, brutal and addictive thriller, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin and James Oswald.

Critic reviews

"With strong characters, hilarious dialogue and a thrilling plot, this book is a page-turner from the start. Impeccable descriptions made the story come alive and, when I thought it had ended, Nally threw another curveball. Exhilarating stuff." ( Sun)

slightly far fetched and a leap of faith at times.

...but a thoroughly enjoyable and funny romp nonetheless. The joy when you find an author who is both funny and interesting but is then tempered when you discover there's only 3 books - I'd definitely read these again...

sending it back!

Got to chapter 44 and gave up. Far fetched and can guess what is going to happen. Listened to over 300 books in 3 yrs and this is only the 4th book I've returned. Not up to previous 2 by same author. Very disappointed.
