Acerca de esta escucha
A spate of murders, deranged scientists, and heavily armed mercenaries - little wonder there's a state of panic at Scotland Yard.
Chief Inspector Brian Hooley has a plan, and it won't make him popular. He wants to bring back autistic detective Jonathan Roper. Currently suspended on misconduct charges, his condition, coupled with a relentless work ethic, makes Roper a unique investigator with observational skills that allow him to see what others miss. But he is also a complex man who doesn't get social boundaries, and plenty of his colleagues just don't like him.
Hooley doesn't care about that. He knows Roper is the one to make a difference.
What follows is a roller-coaster ride, with the veteran cop about to find out what it's like to be the subject of Roper's unflinching gaze as his personal habits face intense scrutiny.
This special relationship is warmly observed and provides a comic contrast to a darkly compelling story where the pair is pushed to the limit.

A young woman's body is discovered on a deserted footpath. It seems like a simple crime for DCI Sophie Allen and her team to solve. But not when the victim's mother is found strangled the next morning. The case grows more complex as DCI Sophie Allen discovers that the victims had secret histories, involving violence and intimidation. There's an obvious suspect, but Detective Allen isn't convinced. Could someone else be lurking in the shadows, someone savagely violent, looking for warped revenge?

Fresh out of uniform, DC Jimmy Bliss finds himself at the centre of an undercover sting. Enlisted by a crew of villains to crack a safe, he fears his cover is blown when he’s seen in the wrong place at the wrong time. But on the night of the job, things run smoothly enough until the gang leader changes the location of the heist. As the job spirals out of control, Bliss has to trust his instincts and buy some time. There’s just one problem: he has no idea if his team know what has become of him.

When an archaeological investigation of an old prisoner of war camp turns up several bodies in unmarked graves, it should be an open and shut case for DCI John Blizzard. But on a foggy November morning, his instinct that something is not quite right is confirmed when forensics show that while most of the victims died during a flu epidemic after the Second World War, one of the deaths was far more recent.

Excellent storyline
Storyline kept my interest throughout. Natural and believable dialogues. Makes you hope that this kind of thing doesn’t really happen in today’s world and all came from authors imagination. I will definitely be reading more of Michael Leese’s books.

Unexpected Likable Thriller
Jonathan Roper is autistic and it's really hard for him to make friends, but I like how he assembled the strange clues to make sense of this crime. With Detective Chief Inspector Brian Hooley of Scotland Yard, helping Jonathan they are a good team and sometimes a difficult colleague.
I wasn't sure if I would like to listen to this audiobook but gave it a chance and I'm glad I did.

Fascinating description of Roper's process. Solution was not obvious which makes it fun.
The sing-song style of the performer is distracting. I really enjoyed the story and will look for more in this series.

Hated the end
This narrator sounded too AI for my liking. Abrupt reading and too long of a pause at the end of each sentence even at 1.1 speed.I got over that because it was an interesting premise. Obviously, I'm listening to a murder mystery but I was really unhappy with how violently disturbing the last few chapters became. I guess it goes with the territory so my fault. But a heads up if anybody would rather avoid disgusting and disturbing narrative.
