About this listen
Derek Adams is a Glasgow PI with plenty of time on his hands. Until the Bogart Case walks in. A priceless family heirloom has been stolen and everyone in town is looking for it. The stars are right once more, and an ancient evil has been awakened from its dreaming sleep. It was supposed to be an easy case, fast money. But pretty soon Derek is up to his armpits in bodies, femme fatales, and tentacles. The city's dark side has him. And it doesn't want to let the Midnight Eye go!

Supernatural comes to Glasgow
Private Investigator Derek Adams, is hired to find a stolen artifact, but this is not a simple job. As people start dying and strange unexplainable events begin, Derek finds himself in deep and over his head. Good story as usual from William, that moves at a nice pace throughout.
R C Bray does a good job brining this Scottish tale to life

Modern Gothic Horror- enjoyable tosh.
I wanted a quick, switch your mind off listen for a lazy weekend and this really hit the mark.
The story involves a fairly down at heel Scottish private detective who gets sucked in to finding a supposedly long-lost, recently lost amulet. As he gets closer to finding it, macabre deaths and strange goings on occur.
The book has humour in the mundanities of being a private eye, and in some of the characters, and the narration really brings this out, even if the accent slipped slightly and the odd mispronunciation grated. The plot is straightforward, and the creepy gothic feel is built up as the story progresses although the ending was a little bit of a let down. Overall a good listen and I will read more from the midnight eye files.

Scottish noir, American narration.
Nice Scottish noir with occult undertones, the author teases with hints of Lovecraftian horror behind a gumshoe plot. The protagonist does remind me *a little* of John Rebus and I'd be very surprised it the author wasn't a fan of Ian Rankin.
I'm sure the narrator would have been great had he been speaking in his normal accent but attempting a Scottish accent for six hours was too much and ended up being very distracting (why not just hire a Scottish narrator?)
