It's no ordinary summer for DCC Bob Skinner, as murder mystery leaps from the page into reality in the nineteenth volume of Quintin Jardine's outstanding cop series.
It's August and the Edinburgh International Book Festival is in full swing. So it's a considerable embarrassment when one of Scotland's most successful crime writers is found dead in the author tent. The victim's phone was tapped. Are the spooks involved? Or has mystery fiction become true crime? A second victim begs the question: have the authors become targets themselves?

About the Author:
Quintin Jardine was born once upon a time in the West - of Scotland rather than America, but still he grew to manhood as a massive Sergio Leone fan. On the way there he was educated, against his will, in Glasgow, where he ditched a token attempt to study law for more interesting careers in journalism, government propaganda, and political spin-doctoring. After a close call with the Brighton Bomb in 1984, he moved into the even riskier world of media relations consultancy, before realising that all along he had been training to become a crime writer. Now, forty novels later, he never looks back.
Along the way he has created/acquired an extended family in Scotland and Spain. Everything he does is for them.

DCC Bob Skinner returns to investigate a murder that has taken place during the Edinburgh festival. James Bryce has narrated previous books in the lengthy Skinner series. Bryce brings Skinner and the large supporting cast to life, using his rich Scots brogue to deliver a plot that includes more murders and intrigue. He keeps the pace moving through twists in the plot, ensuring that readers are engaged throughout. Despite Bryce's accomplished delivery, listeners may find the large cast, many of whom have the same accent, difficult to distinguish. Still, this is an enjoyable listen, particularly as one's familiarity with the characters grows. K.J.P. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
