Summary

Returning home from a police conference, DCI Boyd catches the last train back to Hastings from Brighton, unaware that he's about to play a central role in what will become a sensational news story.

But Boyd is reluctant to get caught up in the media hype or have his face plastered across the tabloids, particularly when what happened aboard the train may be the final act of a horrific and tragic story.

I almost gave up in the 1st book in the series, I just couldn't get into the first half, it felt a bit too numerous at the start but am so glad I persevered . each book in the series has gotten better and better, this one especially was moving, kept you wondering until nearly the end.. very brave to cover this topic but it was sensitive even though a work of fiction .

Yet another riveting listen !

Story had some very eye opening issues which we all need to be reminded of, so we learn. It goes to show we just to conclusions for the latest fear in the world when history holds the real truth. Great book to listen to highly recommend it

Loved it

The story is excellent, as are the others in this series. As for the narration, I could listen to Aubrey Parsons reading a bus timetable and enjoy his voice and inflection. The author is quite correct that man's inhumanity to his fellow men seems to be just as prevalent today as it was in ancient times. Isn't one of the definitions of insanity "doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome?

Wonderful! I managed to find this missing book from a brilliant series.

Humbling, shocking and gripping!
Boyd gets better and his team are now part of that tight knit bunch you can’t help but warm to.
So far this is the best one!

Stunning

I thought this was a really enjoyable listen. The story is fast paced and exciting with quite a lot going on and a reluctant Boyd bang in the middle of it all. Counter Terrorism decide what happened despite many things contradicting their thinking and it's up to Boyd to find the truth. Highly Recommended. Yes, there is at the time of writing this a problem with chapters from another Jack Probyn book having crept in there but I've reported this to the powers that be and it should be sorted out very shortly.
For me it did not take anything away from Alex's story hence the full 5 stars. Aubreys narration was as brilliant as ever.

Really Enjoyable listen.
