Gripping story line

Another great book by a great author. The fact that the author has a background of law enforcement really shows through in the books and especially this one. It adds the depth to the story and the characters that is difficult to find in many books. The fact that this one carries on the principal characters from earlier books just makes it more enjoyable to listen to. Love the character development, and I am impatiently waiting for the next book in this series. Thank you for writing such great stories and helping to create a world where you almost feel like you're part of the book. It also helps that Angus King is reading the book because as someone once said they could listen to Angus read a phone book and it would still sound great. The best combination you can have... a great story, a great writer and a great narrator all are in this book

Better and Better

I enjoyed a few books in this series but wasn't fully blown away. But I think this is a solid police procedural with a complex plot and well developed characters. I added the next offering to my wish list.
And Angus King? Just the best!

Another win for Max Craigie

Neil Lancaster has created an interesting and sustainable character in Max Craigie. Together with the inestimable voice talent of Angus King, The Devil You Know is a very satisfying listen. It is intellectually sound, competently written, and has a satisfying flow. Well done.

Another amazing one!

I wasn’t sure if I was going to be that into it at first, but I was very wrong! Great story

Very Good mystery

Another great story by this talented author. I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to the next. (:

A good story

The only reason I continue with this series is because of the characters, Ross and Barny, and decent plots. Tell me do all Scottsman cry when they are scared or get caught? Hardly the tough people of legend and a bit of an oxymoron when describing the brutality one minute and the regret the next. I find the banter between Janey and Max tedious.

Riveting

This was another great story full of drama and intrigue. Narration was again fantastic, roll on the next book

the humor

I liked it all. the detail, the sense of humor, the different accents, the relationships between the team

Fabulous!

Angus King is incredible and the story of DS Max Craige continuing to weed out corruption grips you from the start

Captivating

Great storyline, good twists and turns keeping the listener on their toes! Exactly what I was looking for.
