About this listen
Private investigator Charlie Parker returns in this heart-pounding thriller, with Angel and Louis taking centre stage, following from events in A Book of Bones, from the internationally best-selling author of the acclaimed Charlie Parker novels.
In Amsterdam, three people are butchered in a canal house, their remains arranged around the crucified form of their patriarch, De Jaager: fixer, go-between and confidante of the assassin named Louis. The men responsible for the murders are Serbian war criminals. They believe they can escape retribution by retreating to their homeland.
They are wrong.
For Louis has come to Europe to hunt them down: five killers to be found and punished before they can vanish into the east.
There is only one problem.
The sixth.

Poor Story, Well Written & Performed
As it says in the title
Jeff Harding does a good job with a well written but basically dull and drawn out story

A great read, but ..?
Angel and Louis take centre stage in this international revenge thriller which oozes with a supernatural air of threat typical of the Charlie Parker novel series.
However... Angel should not sound like Bugs Bunny.

Not a Charlie Parker novel
I’m not sure why the author doesn’t just give Louie and Angel their own spin off set of books. That’s not to say I didn’t enjoy it I did just lost a star for the unnecessary commentary on the former Yugoslavia.

Another great book
I have read every book in this series and loved them all. Even with just a passing cameo role of Parker this time around, the author has still captured the magic with Angel and Louis. Great narration. When is the next book out !

Nice addition
It's good when the peripheral characters take center stage, although that's the last 2 books now which haven't progressed the story arc any further.

I didn't think I could love Louis more...
...but apparently I can! I think is one of the best of the Charlie Parker series, and even though Parker makes few appearances, the depth of his attachment to Angel and Louis shines through with absolute clarity. It makes such a glorious change to read - or listen to! - a book where make friendship is so clearly apparent without the writing feeling laboured in any way.
This book was an absolute joy and of course that's in no small part due to my absolute devotion to Louis and his wicked sharp tongue. Bravo, Mr Connolly!

Well researched.
I've read all Charlie Parker books. The last chapter ruined this book though. Very rushed as if John Connolly got fed up with writing.

Angel and Louis
I love reading/listening to the Charlie Parker series, always enjoying the storyline, sharp ‘laugh out loud’ wit, and great characters. So to have a book featuring Angel and Louis as the main protagonists is a welcome change.
As mentioned by other reviewers, the book is lengthy and sometimes a little difficult to follow, although I put that down to my lack of familiarity with Serbian names than Mr Connolly’s writing skills.
A thoroughly enjoyable book.

the nameless ones
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, just as I've enjoyed all John Connolly books. Angel and Louis play the main characters with Charlie Parker playing the small part. This in no way spoils the book as Charlie Parker books need Angel and Louis. I was hooked on this book and didn't want it to end.
