About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The highly anticipated sequel to Sunday Times best seller The Black Book.

Detective Billy Harney exposes an evil lurking deep within his city - but it also brings his past demons to light....

To Billy Harney, the newest member of Chicago PD's elite strike force, getting shot in the head, stalked by a state's attorney, and accused of murder by his fellow cops is all part of breaking a case.

So, when a drive-by shooting on the Chicago's West Side turns political, he doesn't shy away from leading the case.

As the easy answers prove to be the wrong ones, Harney's quest to expose the evil that's rotting the city from the inside out takes him to the one place he vowed never to return: his own troubled past.

Story is ok but leaning way harder into really obscene horrible things being done to people. Makes the tone much darker and more vengeful. Previous stories didn’t lean into “the horrible violent things evil people do” so much. This story was considerably less entertaining and much more pointlessly disturbing.

Much darker than the previous

While not as great as the black book, this second adventure with Billy was still enjoyable enough to have me ready to jump straight into book 3. Billy can't catch a break with the ending not something I again didn't see coming, I like that the authors are continuing to surprise.
Fingers crossed for book 3!

Enjoyable
