About this listen

The second crime thriller in the No.1 bestselling Logan McRae series from Stuart MacBride.

Even the darkest crimes will come to light…

‘Stuart MacBride is a damned fine writer’ Peter James

Crime never sleeps.

Down by the docks, in the dead of night, a woman is hunted down and killed. For DS Logan McRae, it’s just the beginning of another nightmare.

Neither does this killer.

As the day dawns and the body count rises, Logan realises that this isn’t just an isolated murder. It’s far more disturbing than that.
A killer is on the loose and wreaking havoc – and Logan is running out of time to stop them.

And the clock is ticking . . .

I found this follow on to book 1 extremly griping and could not stop and had to finish it. It is so well written and narrated that you feel like giving DS McRae a kick up the bum.

Excellent

I've always enjoyed these books. If there is one place these books have put me off visiting, it's the cities of Scotland. The description of the coldness, the wet, the grayness and granite of these places sets such a brilliant environment for the storie and the characters. This was a great story with so many threads however I thought it ended too abruptly, almost as if our author just wanted to tie it all up and submit...

Great, but...

Stuart could really use a better editor. there's just SO much extraneous story that adds nothing. and it's strange that the situation is repeated over and over, ie/ he messed up, his superiors weren't happy, so he goes and does the wrong thing again, he gets in trouble again, then rinse and repeat.
and I REALLY dislike Steele character. she adds nothing and is so one-dimensional. DI Ench was a competent superior officer character,

actually all the female characters are one-dimensional with no character development since we met them in the first book.
I also didn't like the way sex workers were portrayed throughout. But i get it was for the book.

but I actually like Stuart's writing, and if he could stop being SO long-winded the books would be on another level. I don't mind a long book, but not so unnecessarily convoluted and repetitive.

im really struggling to find good books now though so I may try the next one.

Too long and repetitive, a disappointment after first book.
