A Jack Barclay novel.

London private investigator Jack Barclay is on the trail of financier Tom Stanton, who has disappeared with £1 million of clients’ money, leaving his desperate wife and children behind. Stanton’s Parisian mistress, Danielle, is also involved with the boss of a drug smuggling cartel and Stanton is seduced into laundering money for them. When £4 million of drug money goes missing and Tom is the prime suspect, he and Danielle go on the run.

The stakes are raised with the kidnapping of Stanton’s daughter, and Jack finds himself in a race to find Stanton before the mob do. As he hunts him down, he uncovers a nightmare world of torture, betrayal, and murder, putting his own life in danger. Jack quickly realizes those who enter the netherworld of the Russian mafia may not get out alive.

Enjoyable tale of getting in too deep with the wrong gang and being seriously in need of some bad-ass help to get you out! Very enjoyable.

This is an excellent listen, the story is well written and fast paced with plenty of interesting, well developed characters. There is suspense in abundance as the hunt for the missing Tom Stanton gathers momentum, why has he cut himself off completely from his wife and family? Will the mob get to him before P.I. Jack Barclay? The narration is brilliant and really brings the story to life. Highly recommended.
I was kindly given a copy of the book and leave this honest review.

An exciting gripping story based in the world of finance and drugs. Lots of twists and turns and some fairly gristly scenes, so not for the squeamish. The narration was good, plenty of believable accents, but the narrator has a strangely halting narration which started to grate after a while, hence only 4*.
