About this listen

Summer, 1658, and the Republic may finally be safe: the combined Stuart and Spanish forces have been heavily defeated by the English and French armies on the coast of Flanders, and the king's cause appears finished.

Yet one final, desperate throw of the dice is planned. And who can stop them if not Captain Damian Seeker?

The final gripping book in this acclaimed and award-winning series of historical thrillers. Will Seeker's legacy endure?

His best one yet. Dark, twisted, honourable. Vividly brings this era alive. Wish there were more.

Excellent

While still good, I didn't enjoy this one as much as the others. The story wasn't as engaging. I'd still recommend it, it wasn't bad by any means, just not as good.
The narrator does an excellent job. The only thing to fault is that the Irish accent sometimes sounds more like a parody.

Not as good as the others

I've loved all of S. G Maclean 's books that I've read so far and this was so good. I'd come to feel so much affection for the characters and even Damien Seeker started to make me chuckle. Very sad at where this book leaves us and look forward to the new one. (although it doesn't seem to promise any fun for Seeker). A brilliantly series and love the narrator of the later books.

I would thoroughly recommended this book to anyone who is keen on Scottish history. Shona McLean just gets better and better.

Really enjoyed this series

Seeker in Bruges is a different but equally effective Cromwellian instrument. Turbulent times drawn so brilliantly by the author and narrated so wonderfully by Jonathan Keeble.

A departure from the norm

I will miss Damien Seeker! I would love a sequel but maybe best to leave it here for everyone to imagine their own.

Exciting series

Great writer and brilliant narrator. I Adore Damien Seeker and can't wait for next book.
