Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The clock is ticking…
Detective Constable Angus MacVicar has just landed his dream job – transferred out of uniform and assigned to Oldcastle’s biggest ongoing murder investigation: Operation Telegram, hunting the “Fortnight Killer”.
Every two weeks another couple is targeted. One victim is left at the scene, their corpse used as a twisted message board. The second body is never seen again.
This should be the perfect chance for Angus to prove himself, but instead of working on the investigation’s front line, he’s lumbered with the forensic psychologist from hell. A jetlagged, sarcastic, know-it-all American, on loan from the FBI, who seems determined to alienate everyone while dragging Angus into a shadowy world of conspiracies, lies, and violence.
It’s been twelve days since the Fortnight Killer last struck, and the investigation’s running out of time. The darkness is growing, and if Angus isn’t careful, it’ll swallow him whole…

Fabulous new detective duo
I just loved this book, the partnership between Angus and Dr Fife, the gripping storyline and the narration combined to produce one of the best books I’ve listened to in a long time! Would definitely recommend and I really hope Stuart McBride decides to make this into a series.

LOVED IT!
S MacB back to his best! Brilliant characters & page turning story. Finished it in 3 days! and of course Angus King who I could listen to read a phone directory! (showing my age there!).

Brilliant
I loved everything about this book, engaging characters, riotous plot, funny dialogue. I really hope that the two main characters appear in a follow up.
Angus King was his usual wonderful self.

Stuart MacBride is Back!!
I absolutely loved this book, the story kept me gripped from beginning to end and Angus King is the best narrator out there by a country mile - Stuart + Angus = Win Win!!
I loved the new characters - Angus is a total hero and I couldn't help comparing him and Dr Fife to characters from Game of Thrones, utterly brilliant!
I really hope this becomes a new series (but not until after the next Logan McRae).

Little & Largemouth. An adventure.
I got to like the characters & the touches of humour balancing out the more gory bits this in the main because it was beautifully narrated by Angus King.

Right up there with the best of Logan McRae
Stuart McB is back at the top of his game. Funny, clever and more twists in the tale than a corkscrew. It’s been a long wait but worth it. 20 hours of sheer bliss. Fantastic narration and wonderful characterisation

Fantastic
Brilliant author & and narrator that brings the characters alive. I thought 20 hours might drag a little but I was gripped. Loved the characters. Hopefully the start of a series.
