Revenge

By: Martina Cole

Narrated by: Annie Aldington

Dangerous. Thrilling. Compulsive. Revenge is the brand-new novel from the phenomenal number one best-selling author Martina Cole.

Be sure your sins will find you out.

Michael Flynn is untouchable in a world of power, money and violence. He fights for what he wants and he takes it, whatever the cost. He learns the rules of the life from the best, and when his mentor, legendary Face Patrick Costello, is taken out, no one questions that Michael Flynn is his natural successor. For Michael, loyalty - and crime - pay.

Michael Flynn rises to heights beyond anything the criminal underworld has seen. He owns everyone, and he rules his empire with an even but fierce hand. No one would dare challenge him.

Then the unthinkable happens. Perhaps Michael Flynn is not so untouchable after all. And he must learn that...without the shedding of blood there can be no forgiveness of sins.

This book is a very long drawn out soap opera.

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

Anyone who hasn't read real crime books. The plot was never developed, it just droned on with banal language and shallow characters.

What could Martina Cole have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Reconsider the lack of any real plot, rewrite it. Fundamentally a serial soap opera.

How could the performance have been better?

. There are so many good crime writers out there. For those of us who enjoy well written crime stories this was dreadful. The narrators voice was like chalk being drawn across a board. The accent horrible.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Yes, it made me realise how patient I am to have kept listening to it.

Any additional comments?

Save your credit for one of the other crime writers.

Fantastic
