About this listen

Someone is trying to kill celebrated author Dylan St James. But who would want him dead? And why? And who the hell shoots someone with a harpoon, anyway? Disgruntled failed crime writer Freddie Winters spends his days conning old ladies, setting up fake book signings, sneaking into literary festivals uninvited and lamenting his lack of success.

When his old friend Dylan turns to him for help, Freddie agrees to use his limited detective skills to find out who’s behind the murder attempt. With a group of suspicious ex-wives, a jealous rival, a crazed stalker fan and an exploding postman to deal with, Freddie soon stumbles upon a catalogue of crazy behaviour and a truly bizarre motive for murder. But can he stop the killer?

I really liked this book, it was such an entertaining story. Also had a plot that was unique to anything I've read or heard before. I like it when you really start off not keen on the main character and then they redeem themselves and you end up liking them. The narrator was also perfect for the role and read it very well indeed. This one is going in my favorites and I'll listen again sometime.

Really entertaining and great story

I've got to honest I had no idea what to expect but this was brilliant - it absolutely gripped me from start to finish and the narrating was excellent. I'm going to look at more titles by both the author and narrator.

Brilliant - absolutely loved it

Really enjoyed this detective mystery. The main character is delightfully dreadful but has his redeeming characteristics. Amusing and enjoyable. The narrator is a bit of a virtuoso and well suited to the role and the story. Hoping for a further adventure.

Delightful
