Blue on Blue

De: Dal MacLean

Narrado por: Gary Furlong

After three years working as a private investigator, newly reinstated Detective Inspector Will Foster still holds himself responsible for the death of an officer under his command. But he's returned to the Met bent on redeeming himself and that means bringing down gangland boss Joey Clarkson.

Will's prepared to put in long hours and make sacrifices for his work, even if it comes at a cost to his nascent romance with international model, Tom Gray. After all, Tom has a history of wandering but crime is a constant in London. And Will has committed himself to the Met.

But when a murder in a Soho walkup leads Will into the world of corruption, he finds himself forced to investigate his own friends and colleagues. Now the place he turned for redemption seems to be built upon lies and betrayal. And someone is more than willing to resort to murder to keep it that way.

Contains mature themes.

I couldn’t “ put it down”

All three books, though linked, stand alone. Total immersion with the excellent writing and narration. 3 of my favorite audiobooks.

suspenseful & emotionally intense! loved it!

This series got better and better with each book. Blue on Blue was so suspenseful and intense. It was fraught with tension, had all the feels and all the angst, and I loved it.

The narrator Gary Furlong totally inhabited the characters he gave voice to. His narration communicated Will’s emotions so convincingly I couldn’t help but cry at times.

This novel, like the previous books in the series, was deftly plotted, and all the plot twists made sense, although it was easier to guess this time around who was the real “villain.” I really liked how the villains were complex characters, and the heroes were flawed characters.

This book is a direct sequel to Object of Desire, which told Will and Tom’s love story from Tom’s perspective. In this book, their story is told from Will’s perspective. It was so interesting to learn what Will hadn’t said and what he had been hiding from Tom.

Though Will didn’t show it, his feelings for Tom were incredibly intense, and I completely sympathized with what he was going through in both his relationship and his job. Will went through so much stress not knowing which of his colleagues he could trust.

So, I really loved how Will and Jamie became cop buddies. I also loved how Ben got some closure, how Will and Tom figured things out, and how their relationship developed.

Will and Tom were such a passionate couple. The sex scenes were amazing, smoking hot, and emotionally intense, with a touch of tenderness and vulnerability. In a word, glorious.

This book was so damn good & unforgettable. I look forward to Dal Maclean’s future books.

Incredible series!

The best series I’ve listened to in years and I listen to several every week. The story is gripping and I couldn’t push pause. Narration was perfect! You should spend your first three credits on this series!

Great "series"

loved all these books ! readthenNOT just this one, Narration on point, awesome story !

A great escape

A welcome flight of fancy on every drive to work. These books got better and better and Gary Furlong is an exceptional voice actor. I’ll be searching for more from Dal.

Amazing 🥰😍🔥🔥

This series was fantastic, made astonishing by Gary Furlong’s narration. I have been stalking him in Audible, listening to everything he has narrated. I absolutely love his Will voice, it’s the deepest, sexiest voice I’ve heard so far and I fell in love with the voice and Will’s character in general. Both Will and James were so vulnerable, and loved Ben and Tom so much, that when they were wronged, I felt like it was happening to me. I wish there were more books with these 4, or more books by Dal MacLean (of course with narration by Gary Furlong)in general. I’ll keep an eye out for more in the future.

Exciting and painful but worth it

Audiobook version was amazing - the different accents and inflections were superb!
I read a review that said this was not a book for the faint of heart - agreed. The story gets very visceral and forces us readers to think able it the fact that these things actually happen in real life around us.
The story was exciting and heart-wrenching at times, but worth it in the end.
I'll definitely be looking at more by this author!

Fantastic End to a Fantastic Series

This was a great discovery and a series I will listen to again. I haven’t seen anything new from Dal Maclean but hope she gifts us with another fantastic series soon. Gary Furlong is awesome with his narration and is among my more favored narrators. Definitely check out this series.

Loved It!

My introduction to Dal MacLean was superb. I truly hope she writes a sequel to Blue On Blue.

fresh and engaging!

I love M/M romances, but what I love most are M/M romances with an interesting story, especially well written mysteries and police procedurals. while these books contain romance that are key to getting into the minds of the MCs, the story is the main focus. the crime, the search for clues, the politics of the criminal justice system are all brilliantly portrayed in these books. my only problem is that this series is supposedly done. I would love to dive into more books about these couples and remain involved in their "lives"! I guess I'll just have to read them over, and over, and over again!
