About this listen

Sir Charles Huxley kept a dark secret — a secret the former government minister should have taken to the grave.

His son, William, lives an uneventful life in his late father’s shadow. He never planned on becoming a middle-aged bachelor and he definitely didn’t plan a career as a low-level politician, but that is now William’s lot...until it’s not.

One evening, William has a chance encounter which sets off an escalating series of sinister events, culminating in a damning revelation about his father’s past. That revelation drags William into the darkest of blackmail plots.

With his blackmailer having cunningly closed every exit, William is trapped, and faces personal and financial ruin. That is until an odd job man working at his local bar steps forward and offers help.

With no alternative, William is forced to join his peculiar saviour on a desperate mission to stop his blackmailer, and unearth the shattering truth about the wrong’un.

Loving this series. Great imagination and most enjoyable. Thank you so much for such an enjoyable storyline.

Great book

I am so pleased I found this series . Loved this book and the previous one. Fantastic story line and the character of Clement and the people he meets are so well drawn. The narrators in both books were excellent . On to book three!

Very entertaining

You can really lose yourself in the story. Fantastic story telling and a great series wondering where Clement will turn up next.

The vision I have in my head of him is played by Rhys Ifans (the bloke from Notting Hill lol

I look forward to book 3 👍

Another enjoyable story

I loved the first Clement book and for some strange reason I couldn't connect with this one for about 10 chapters - the story, the narration, nothing was clicking for me...how wrong I was by the end of the book!

I won't give any spoilers, but whatever you do make sure you stay with this one no matter how it may seem (to me anyway).

Thoroughly enjoyable, great narration and story, and can't wait for the next installment of everyone's favourite double denim hero.

Worth sticking with

A previous review remarked on the narration as Clarksonesque and I recognised this straight away and returned the book. However, after listeneing to Clawthorn and Headcase. I decided to repurchase and press on.

The narration stopped being annoying after the first chapter and I started to appreciate the richness and variation of the voice.

The story itself is very good and is as exciting to hear as the others in the series.

Good story, Love the series

Really enjoyed this second book in the series. The protagonist came across as a likeable character - even for an MP ;-) and I found the narrator to be a perfect fit for the character. The change in narrator between book 1 and 2 was a little jarring for the first couple of paragraphs, but once you settle in to the character, it fits so well.

Looking forward to book 3 and where our big man may end up next...

Excellent story, and the narrator was spot on

Loving the series. Very cleverly written. Great narrator too. On to the next book in the series now.

Great book!

I am a huge Keith A. Pearson fan and have read/listened to all his other books. However, I avoided this one (as I suspect a few others have done) as a result of the several very negative comments on the narration. However, eventually I had to continue the Clement series, so I invested one of my credits on this book.

At first, the prejudice that had inevitably been created in my mind reacted to the narrator's style and I did find it a bit distraction. However this only lasted until half way through Chapter 2, when I stopped thinking about it and just enjoyed the book. By the end, I really couldn't remember what had annoyed me about the narrator. He was fine. So, please don't be put off even if you listen to the 'free sample' and are tempted to decide against the book as a result.

As for the book itself, there was plenty to enjoy. KAP's characters are well sculpted and you really care about them as the book progresses. It's a decent book.

In my view, however, it isn't his best. I know you have to adopt a willing suspension of disbelief when reading a book, but there are quite a few things here which simply wouldn't happen (and I am not talking about Clement's appearance). Without giving too much away, someone in the position of the main protagonist would have known that contacting the police immediately would have avoided all the subsequent problems that arose. There are other examples of silly - irrational and illogical - decisions being taken, but I cannot go into details without revealing too much of the story.

Never mind. It's still a great read and as with all KAP's books, I felt the familiar feeling of disappointment when this one finished.

Don't be discouraged by negative narration reviews

The narrator as others have said let’s this Clement book down.
Imagine a 1980s DJ narrating a book and you would get an idea of what it’s like.
The story is good though so if you can cope with the irritating voice it’s worth a listen.

DJ?

This is another winner, a great storyline with a couple of red herrings , interesting characters and Clement.
Initially I found the narration somewhat grating so I read some of the book on Kindle but when I returned to Audible I found it okay: most politicians voices and delivery are somewhat annoying aren't they?
Untill I discovered Keith A. Pearson I'd read very little fiction, but I've read both Mungo Thunk, 2 ' Who sent Clement?' with the next 2 lined up, plus others.
Terrier next..or Clawthorn?

Another result for K.A.P. and Clement
