About this listen

A trail of secrets. A dangerous discovery. A deadly turn.

Police officer Sebastian Clifford never planned on becoming a private investigator. But when a scandal leads to the disbandment of his London based special squad, he finds himself out of a job. That is, until his cousin calls on him to investigate her husband’s high-profile death, and prove that it wasn’t a suicide.

Clifford’s reluctant to get involved, but the more he digs, the more evidence he finds. With his ability to remember everything he's ever seen, he's the perfect person to untangle the layers of deceit.

He meets Detective Constable Bird, an underutilized detective at Market Harborough’s police force, who refuses to give him access to the records he’s requested unless he allows her to help with the investigation. Clifford isn't thrilled. The last time he worked as part of a team it ended his career. But with time running out, Clifford is out of options. Together they must wade through the web of lies in the hope that they’ll find the truth before it kills them.

Includes bonus story Nowhere to Hide.

I’m a Jonathan Keeble groupie! Very good story made even better by his narration, he is marvellous and I’m now just filtering on books read by him! I can absolutely recommend this book, interesting, witty and brilliantly performed. Thank you.

Fantastic

I’ve read some of the Cavendish and Walker series by this author so it was a no brainier for me to pick up this one and I’m glad I did.
Sebastian Clifford is an ex police officer and while he decides what to do with the rest of his life he reluctantly agrees to look into the apparent suicide of his cousin’s husband after she asks for his help as she doesn’t believe he took his own life.
This story moves along at quite a gentle pace but that doesn’t mean it’s boring, far from it, I love DC Lucinda Bird’s aka Birdie character and the easy going relationship that quickly develops between them.
Overall a good easy read story that kept me enthralled all rhe way through. I’ll happily pick up the 2nd book.

The narrator was perfect in his delivery and portrayal of the characters especially Clifford.

I love that it's a spin off from Cavendish & walker.
A very good story with a surprising conclusion.
Over-all the narration is very good, the only let down is the narrator makes one of the main characters sound very childish,

Good spin off

Yet again another story brilliantly narrated by Jonathan Keeble - a good narrator makes or brakes the author’s words

Great story

Not a bad story not too complicated but the characters are quite likeable - I’ll definitely listen to the second one. Sadly the narrator makes Clifford sound much older and his female voices aren’t great.

A good story and likeable characters

Sally Rigby does write a good story, if a bit short. This story is better value for money with a run time longer than her average 6hrs 40 mins. Mr Keeble is a good narrator except for his female voices which border on the comical. I appreciate its difficult for male doing female and vice versa. Good enough listen nevertheless if a little lacking in excitement.

Entertaining and enjoyable.

I found the narration acceptable but wasn't over keen on the main character's voice - bit too cliched. The storyline was entertaining but fairly predictable.

Entertaining enough read

Love this new series. Can’t fail be be attracted to both characters. A great read with a few twists and no long-winded or confusing rambling. Downloaded the second book before finishing the first!

Great read!
