Paperboy

De: Callum McSorley

Narrado por: Diane Brooks, Angela Ness, Andrew McIntosh

DCI Alison McCoist is back: newly promoted and even less popular. Chuck Gardner is the proud owner of both a confidential paper-shredding business and a serious betting habit. When Chuck finds some scandalous paperwork and McCoist investigates a rat-nibbled corpse under a flyover, they are both sucked into a deadly stramash of gangland wars and police corruption. Can Chuck solve his gambling and gangster problems before some heed-banger feeds him into his own shredder? And can McCoist claw herself out of this latest shitemire without her own shady dealings coming to light? It might depend on how far she's prepared to go...©2025 Callum McSorley (P)2025 W.F.

Funny and shocking but consistently gripping

Liked the story (eventually) but hard to follow initially unless you've read or heard the authors first book. The accents may be a struggle but worth persisting. The dry, ironic humor rings true for Glasgow, and the plot and characters are engaging if a little cartoonish. Readers were all excellent character actors.

Unrelenting suspense, hilarious humour, dark and gritty

Started listening and didn't pause for a moment. The reader was outstanding. The writing even better. I'm a huge fan of Stuart MacBride and this novel ticks all the same boxes. Have now listened to Squeaky Clean and Paper Boy. Outstanding!
