Publisher's Summary

DCI Craig Gillard will be pushed to his limits. But will he break? It seems like a routine disappearance, a case of musician’s stage fright. As a senior detective, Craig Gillard isn’t sure why he’s even involved. Until it turns out the woman’s father is the German minister of justice, and the British home secretary is on the case, too.

But nothing about the case is simple. How does a woman on a train simply vanish? What do you do when a trail runs cold and the pressure is on?

Before long the perpetrator has another target: DCI Gillard himself. What if the detective isn’t just running the case but is part of it? The victim merely a lure for a bigger fish.

The answer is under the bridge. The chilling setting for the biggest challenge of his life.

The latest DCI Gillard Crime Thriller is a knockout: fast and completely gripping, perfect for fans of Stuart Macbride, Mark Billingham and Robert Bryndza.

The Best In the Series So Far

I've listened to the first 4 books in this series and liked them. But this one has been the best so far. There has been no drag or lag or overly detailed passages at all. Marston York's narration is the cream on top. His performance makes the writing flow. The thing is this high standard of story telling and narration makes it difficult to tolerate the 'average' in other books. I highly recommend this.

Another fast paced twister

Thoroughly enjoyed it. The idea of women who should know better falling for a sick conman is unpleasant but apparently not unheard of.
I like the narrator’s style.

Fabulous Writing

Such detail and understanding of police procedures and psychological killers.
I could not turn this audible story off.
The reader Marston York as always does a great job of pulling you into the plot.

Excellent Listen

Really enjoyed Nick Louth’s latest DCI Craig Gillard mystery- so many layers and twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat right to the end.

Body under the Bridge

Satisfying story, although I find the female characters not well portrayed. Had hoped that Sam (or any one of the female officers) would show the strong independence that appeared in the first book. Parts of the story seemed contrived, but overall, an engaging listen.
