About this listen

A dead body in the prayer hall of a mosque isn't the best start to the day for anyone. But for Detective Inspector Harold Porter it's all in a day's work. The problem is that DI Porter has been given a new partner - a young Muslim detective by the name of Mohammed Salim Nasri.

Nasri and Porter are both British and both cops, but they look at the world - and the case - from completely different viewpoints. And when that case includes Islamic terrorists and knife-wielding fanatics that can only mean problems.

As Porter and Nasri work to solve the case, MI5 is watching over their shoulders, and one wrong move could mean a major terrorist incident.

I am quite familiar with Dan spider shepherd series but this was a one off. I really enjoyed the way they used 4 different voices depending on who of the main characters were speaking. It gave so much depth to it. The subject matter was relevant and the procedural information very informative. A great read.

Excellent production
