About this listen

John Milton hasn't seen Elijah Warriner for three years. The last time they met, Milton's efforts to keep the boy safe didn't go exactly to plan. Now Elijah is a promising boxer, preparing for the bout that will take him to the big time. Milton decides that he will spend the week before Christmas in London so that he can watch the fight.

But Elijah's burgeoning fame has brought him to the attention of old acquaintances with long memories and grudges to bear. They have noticed Elijah, too, and decide that now is the time to settle old scores.

Can Milton keep the young man and his mother safe, or will Elijah's old running mates get to him first?

In a long running series it is easy to predict which protagonists will be living at the end. Very authentic scene setting but the tiniest errors in geography and what happens when, e.g. no boxing promoter will stage a bill on Christmas Eve, but hey its fiction and very absorbing.

Great but a little predictable

I thought the previous book in the East End fell rather flat at the end with Milton leaving at short notice and two characters feeling aggreived. The author saved another story from within and what a cracker it is. The youngers have grown up and lead a plot which is a must read if you are a Milton fan ... I am ! It is a bit short but I enjoyed it !

It's a shame this is relatively short, the plot is good, the performance good but so much more could have been added.

A good listen.

*4.5 Stars*

The icy blue cold dead eyes that belong Milton is back, when he is on a mission you do not underestimate him. I give him kudos as this time he is revisiting a character from his past, Elijah Warrenir, he featured in book 1 of the series called ‘Cleaner’

This visit is 3 years on and a lot has changed. Elijah and his mother Sharon were living on a rough Council estate where the prospects are joining gangs and not just any gang, back then John was on the run from the Elite government agency ‘Group Fifteen’ where he was their number one assassin, who has the ability to blend in which makes him dangerous and deadly. No one leaves the group unless in a box.

He was trying to save Elijah from committing the unthinkable and wasting his life. John ended up wreaking riot and innocents got caught up in the crossfire as Control sent more than one agent to kill him. He left under a cloud and now he is back to make amends.

How will it go this time now Elijah has left the area, changed his name and is making a success of Boxing that Milton got him into. Now with a name change Elijah Aka Mohammed takes the fight to London not a million miles from his old stomping ground. Milton knows that he will be in imminent danger so he makes a move…….

Yet another fantastic story. It's a bit short only being under 6 hours but it's brilliant as always.

Please don't make us wait that long for the next one

Perfect but short

I have thoroughly enjoyed all the Milton books, but this one grabbed me more than others to such an extent that I stopped doing the odd jobs that usually get dealt with at the same rime, and just sat and listened to the last chapters without moving!

Classic Milton.

Only a ‘short’ story but the author’s craft is, yet again, sublime. If I was reading this in book form then it would be a rare ‘page turner’. Fascinating from the start right through to the last page. Intriguing plot and an unusual setting make this a really classic listen.
That said, I have to highlight the reader. I’ve listened to a couple of hundred books as I have become sight impaired in the last two years. This narrator is, without rival, simply the best in the business.
How nice it is to be able to post a totally positive review for once.

Another gripping and so believable story.
