À propos de cet audio

An atmospheric debut novel set on the gritty streets of Victorian London, Some Danger Involved introduces detective Cyrus Barker and his assistant, Thomas Llewelyn, as they work to solve the gruesome murder of a young scholar in London's Jewish ghetto. When the eccentric and enigmatic Barker takes the case, he must hire an assistant, and out of all who answer an ad for a position with "some danger involved", he chooses downtrodden Llewelyn, a gutsy young man with a murky past.

As they inch ever closer to the shocking truth behind the murder, Llewelyn is drawn deeper and deeper into Barker's peculiar world of vigilante detective work, as well as the heart of London's teeming underworld.

Brimming with wit and unforgettable characters and steeped in authentic period detail, Some Danger Involved is a captivating novel that introduces an equally captivating duo.

I actually picked up this title after one of my favourite podcasters DNFed it because she said Sherlock Holmes type stories just aren't her cup of tea. (Good Books Lately - really great podcast). Well, pour me a cup because I love Sherlock Holmes. In print, audibles, on TV, movies, you name it, I've consumed it!
I am so happy to have found what I believe is his Scottish equivalent! More than that, Watson is my preferred character and Thomas Llewelyn is just as good as an assistant and narrator of these tales.
I cannot wait to read more in this series!
Also, I loved Antony Ferguson's performance. His voice plus excellent writting will have me questioning whether I listened to this or actually saw it!
If you like any of the great detectives, Hercule Poirot, Sherlock Holmes, Father Brown, Patrick Jane, Adrian Monk or Cordelia Cupp - you'll enjoy these stories.
Highly recommend to those who wish that more of Sherlock's cases were written up!
