Crooked Was His Cane

Detective Inspector Declan Walsh, Book 19

The critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling Declan Walsh series continues...

Waiting for a taxi can be murder.

Someone is killing London "black cab" taxi drivers.

Seemingly unconnected, but all with the same MO, bodies are being found across the City of London, and only two clues connect them; an unknown killer with a crooked walking cane, and the title to a folk song placed on rolled paper inside their mouths.

Now, DCI Walsh and his team, still reeling after the end of Harvest For The Reaper must hunt down the killer, falling into a world of taxi apps, cab driver tribalism, a map of death related to "The Knowledge," and a cold crime from decades earlier, while fighting the potential closure of their unit...

Is this the last case for the Last Chance Saloon—no matter what happens?

The nineteenth audiobook in the critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling series of procedural crime thrillers featuring DCI Declan Walsh and the team of the Last Chance Saloon, Crooked Was His Cane is perfect for fans of J.D Kirk, L.J Ross, Ian Rankin, Alex Smith, Rachel McLean, J M Dalgliesh and Ann Cleeves, among others.

Another exciting Adventure with the last chance saloon!

I love all these books!! The last chance saloon is great! This is no exception . The twists and turns, the past cases always returning somehow! Love the narrator!!

Rehash of old material.

The earlier Declan Walsh books were more engaging, with developing stories and characters. The author seems to have run out of ideas.
