About this listen

With the best detectives in the business, cutting-edge technology, and offices around the globe, there is no investigation agency quite like Private. Now, at a glittering launch party overlooking the iconic Opera House, Private throws open its doors....

Craig Gisto and his newly formed team have barely raised their glasses, however, when a young Asian man, blood-soaked and bullet-ridden, staggers into the party, and what looks like a botched kidnapping turns out to be a whole lot more.

Within days the agency’s caseload is full: from a missing businessman whose latest scheme was a step too far, to a rock star terrified he’s next in line for the infamous ‘Club 27’. But it is a horrific murder in the wealthy Eastern Suburbs and the desperate search for a motive that stretches the team to the limit. Stacy Friel, friend of the Deputy Commissioner of NSW Police, isn’t the killer’s first victim - and as the bodies mount up she’s clearly not the last....

Story amazing as always
Delivery of the story however needs work.
He wasn’t terrible but didn’t really observe the punctuation and it would of been nice to see a little change in the ready of each character.
All in all enjoyed the book

Punctuation

If you’re writing it from an Australian perspective then the Americanisms need to change. We deal in kilometres not miles and we use mobiles not cells etc

A decent amount of research has been done but more was needed. Maybe edited by an Australian editor to correct the disparity

Too Mixed

Not as good as some of his earlier work when written without co-author. Overall fair at best. Story easy to follow, lacked depth and substance, and in some of the story, to predictable. One for his true diehard fans only. My score 4/10.

Not As Good
