About this listen

The latest ‘Jack Haldean’ mystery, set in the Roaring Twenties

A hundred thousand dragons lie, underneath an Arabian sky. How do a few lines of poetry, a chance encounter in a London hotel, and a death in Sussex lead to a lost city of Arabia, and to the tombs of the Whispering Dead? Jack Haldean has evaded the truth for years, but now, enmeshed in the web of murder, theft and deception, he must find the answer and face up to the truth – a truth as deadly as any dragon...

Jack Haldean is a cross between Indiana Jones and Clark Kent, in the adventurous 1920s. From the luxurious English Country House to the immense and impressive Egyptian landscape and the city of Petra. If you're looking for adventure then you've come to the right place!

I think that people who like Indiana Jones will enjoy this novel. It was a little bit slow in parts, and perhaps there was too much dialogue, but it was enjoyable. I was pleased that there was no sex, no bad language, and very little violence. The narrator and sound quality were excellent. The narrator is very good with all the voices, including both male and female. I will read/listen to other books by this author.

A quite good adventure story

Nice and pacy. Very much old school Biggles. Brilliantly narrated with great grasp of accents. I wish I could find books 1-3

Rip roaring yarn
