Publisher's summary

The name's John Taylor. I work the garish streets of the Nightside - the hidden heart of London where it's always three a.m., where inhuman creatures and otherworldly gods walk side by side in the endless darkness of the soul.

I have a talent for finding things. People...property...no problem. But now I'm after something different.

A local diva called the Nightingale has cut herself off from her family and friends, and I've been hired to find out the reason. I'm also wondering why her suicide-prone fans think she has a voice to die for. Literally.

To get the truth, I'll have to lend an ear to the most enticingly beautiful and deadly voice in all of the Nightside - and survive.

Classis series!!

I love this series!
I have read the series multiple times, but there is something different about listening to the series.
The voice actor is great!
I really think the voice matches the image I have created of John Taylor!
On to the next book in this series 😃

Another wonderful night side story!

Simon R Green has always captivated me with all his stories, and this one is a favorite of mine. I was caught off guard with the switch of the voice actor change from the previous story but soon came to live his style especially with dead boy. Worth a listen!

Eh, it didn’t age well.

This was written in 2004, so maybe that’s an excuse- but calling people “tranny”, even in the early 2000’s was not really acceptable. I get that maybe this is how the character speaks, but that doesn’t seem to jive with the rest of his character. I do hope this doesn’t continue in the rest of the series!
