About this listen

London, 1556. Hal Westmecott, one of the city's most feared executioners, reckons Jack Blackjack owes him a favour - and now he's come to collect his dues.

Hal has ordered Jack to track down his long-lost son. But when Jack's search draws him to the attention of a ruthless nobleman, a dead priest's vengeful brother and finally to a bloodstained body in a filthy lodging house, he comes to realise he is an unwitting pawn in a mesh of schemes dreamed up by the most powerful people in England.

Just who is a friend, who is a foe - and will Jack escape with his life intact?

What makes audiobooks so good can also be what I assume is a nightmare for authors and publishers. This series is so associated for me with Peter Noble’s reading that nothing else can compare. Kris Dyer is a perfectly good narrator, but had no chance of making this performance his own.
