Radio shock-jock Jack Caramac is used to controversy - but when his four-year-old son is kidnapped, he knows he may have gone too far. Jack has no choice but to turn to Dan Starkey for help. Dan has finally given up on journalism, and resolves to catch whoever kidnapped Jack's son. Instead, he finds himself in the middle of a violent feud between rival drug gangs, as the case spirals ever more out of his control...

Dan Starkey, the ducking and diving hapless investigator, takes centre stage again in this brilliant new novel by the master of comic crime.©2011 Colin Bateman Crime Fiction Suspense Thriller & Suspense

Actually found Dan slightly less irritating in this one and was more amused by him as a consequence. good listen. .

Great listen

I do enjoy Colin Bateman's story telling and this one does not disappoint! Dan Starkey is a bit of a plonker, but you can't help liking him and wanting him to come through smiling, and at times I was on the edge of my train seat cheering him on (no idea what the other passengers thought!). I have a number of books in my audible library which I dip in and out of, but this one I just couldn't wait to listen to and was a little sad when it finished! So much so, I found the longest Colin Bateman book I could find and downloaded it the very next day!

couldn't put it down!

All the thrills with none of the scotland and some higher stakes. A lot of fun to listen to, would benefit from A cast reading.

Irish Trainspotting

It's the least humorous setting, but somehow you're laughing. Colin Bateman weaves a complicated web for our non-hero to try to extricate himself, and those closest to him, from.
Well worth a listen, and excellent narration by Adam Moore.

Another enjoyable adventure for Mr Starkey
