À propos de cet audio

She can’t prove he did it. But she might die trying…

From the Sunday Times No.1 bestselling author of the Logan McRae series, comes a standalone spinoff featuring DS Roberta Steel.

Revenge is a dangerous thing…

Detective Chief Inspector Roberta Steel got caught fitting up Jack Wallace – that’s why they demoted her and quashed his sentence. Now he’s back on the streets and women are being attacked again.

The top brass have made it very clear that if Detective Sergeant Steel goes anywhere near him, she’ll be thrown off the force for good.

But she can’t just do nothing – if she does he’ll keep hurting women. The question is: how much is she willing to sacrifice to stop him?

It was fun to see the story from Steel's point of view - with McRae as a more peripheral character. As usual - a very complex plot with threads that were expertly woven together - all with a sense of justice at the end. Classic MacBride.#Audible1

Another Tale of Twists and Turns

I shouldn't love this one as much as I do. It's sophomoric, loaded with scatalogical humor, and it stars Steele and Tufty, two characters best taken in small doses. But somehow it works. Steele gets to show some of her more positive qualities, and Tufty, though still very much Tufty, gets to be a bit more than a comic foil/idiot. His annoying speech patterns still drive me bananas ("I has a genius!" etc.) but it was great to get a more rounded view of his character.
And that last big showdown is just beautiful. Genuinely tense and a little scary, and then so, so satisfying.
I really, really enjoyed it, although I must admit that having the sense of humor of a 5 year old helped.

great
