About this listen

Detectives Calladine and Bayliss hunt for a missing child in a mystery with a shocking ending.

Sophie Alder is the three-year-old daughter of local factory owner, Richard Alder. Richard and his wife Annie are locals from the rough housing estate who’ve made it big.

Plus, there’s a crime wave in Leesworth and the police can’t cope. One thief even dares to break into Calladine’s house.

A number of local men have formed a vigilante group. On one of their patrols they catch the burglar and he ends up dead.

The investigation is complicated and the detectives keep hearing about a shadowy figure called 'Street', the mastermind behind the increase in drugs and theft.

With two more murders and Calladine’s personal life in turmoil, the detectives race against time to find 'Street' and the missing child.

In an ending with a huge twist, the detectives find everything they believed is turned upside down.

If you like Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, Mel Sherratt, Ruth Rendell or Mark Billingham you will enjoy this exciting new crime fiction writer.

Dead Guilty is book nine of a new series of detective thrillers featuring D.S. Ruth Bayliss and D.I. Tom Calladine.

A very unique storyline that takes you through most of the inhabitants of a run down estate. Who could it be, no one is talking.

So unique

Durrant’s stories are good! But why does Keeble, who is an otherwise brilliant narrator, make such bad voices to the carachters? They all grunt and exhale heavely while speaking and Tom Calladine sounds like an 80 year old overweight farmer in a film from the 60’s! All women have slightly whiny voices. Why?

Good! But why…?

This story was more engaging than they have been for a while. I worried the author was running out of steam here, but this one was back on form. Dead good!
