Resumen del Editor

The past can be a killer.

When the dismembered body of a notorious banker washes up on the beach at Luss, DCI John Lomond finds a sinister message carved into the dead man's forehead.
And the same message has just been found on a tortured businessman in Gullane on the east coast.

With a twisted vigilante on the loose, and a brewing scandal threatening to pull his Major Investigations Team apart, they and Lomond must join forces with a team from Edinburgh–led by Lomond's ex.

But like the killer they're hunting, she's not ready to leave the past behind.

Now, as the body count rises, Lomond's past hasn't just come back to haunt him. It could be the death of him.

Shot through with dark Glaswegian humour and thrilling twists, Andrew Raymond captures the voices of his beloved home city, taking you into its hidden depths, and the iconic hills and glens surrounding the nearby bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.
If you like writers like JD Kirk, Ian Rankin, David J. Gatward, Val McDermid, Mark Billingham, and Stuart MacBride, this addictive thriller will have you gripped until its explosive, gut-wrenching climax.

Excellent Series!

This is an outstanding series—great detective work, interesting professional interactions, compelling stories, and intriguing characters with developing personal stories from book to book. I particularly like the irreverent lead character DCI Lomond. He’s humorous, passionate, vulnerable and a bit of a maverick. The narration by the amazing Angus King is the cherry on top for what has quickly become one of my favorite series. Keep ‘em coming, Mr. Raymond!

How refreshing to see characters progress

I like this series more and more. Particularly now that I can recognize the voices Angus King attaches to these characters and hear less and less of JD Kirk’s crew. Lomond’s world is a bit more somber but engaging all the same. There is a tenderness in the midst of all the mayhem that has me wanting more.

Enjoying this series.

Great listen! The third book in this series is as compelling as the first two. I found the plot quite complicated and the cast of names to keep track of a little confusing to begin with but eventually sorted out what was what. I enjoy the regular characters and it will be interesting to see if / how many of the “Fettes Lot” feature in future.

Really Enjoyed This Book!

Angus King is an exceptional narrator! As he does with JD Kirk’s DCI Logan series, the differentiation in character voices creates a cohesive team experience as the author intends. Mr. Raymond’s ‘The Bloody, Bloody Banks’ fleshes out characters and their backstories to the point that their motivations and actions are understandable. We gain an insight into Lomand, his team, and the developing chemistry that makes them work.

Bloody, bloody brilliant!

Andrew Raymond & Angus King are a winning team! Together, the writer and the performer, bring us three-dimensional characters bursting with life! The twists & turns kept me guessing and turning the pages. Endearing ending . . .
