About this listen

“You’re going to hell, Jack Nightingale”: They are words that ended his police career. Now Jack’s a struggling private detective – and the chilling words come back to haunt him.

Nightingale’s life is turned upside down the day that he inherits a mansion from a man who claims to be his father. It comes with a warning that Nightingale’s soul was sold at birth and a devil will come to claim it on his 33rd birthday – just three weeks away.

Jack doesn’t believe in Hell, but when people close to him start to die horribly, he is led to the inescapable conclusion that real evil may be at work. And that if he doesn’t find a way out, he’ll be damned in hell for eternity.

Very good, except for.........

I really enjoyed this book. The story takes unexpected twists and turns. Different strands are brought together well at the end, ready for the next instalment. The narration is great.

I found only one real MAJOR bugbear & that was over the lead character’s unrelenting smoking of roll up cigarettes. It felt as if every paragraph began and ended with ‘he lit a cigarette’, or ‘he ground the cigarette butt under his heel’. I accept that some people smoke and that incorporating this into a novel can add atmosphere. However, I did get sick and tired of a fag being lit up or stubbed out on the floor with monotonous regularity. I carried on listening because the underlying story was worth listening too. Just be prepared if you detest the habit.

Good book.

Occult novels are not usually my cup of tea so I havent anything to compare it to. I chose to read this book on the back of another one of Leathers books Tango One and also I always enjoy Thornleys narrating.

I wouldn't have labelled this book as one that i couldnt put down but a good book none the less. The story stayed tight, didnt fall weak at any points. Main characters were interesting and the narration kept me interested. I've seen there are others in the Nightingale series, I wouldnt rush to read them straight away but might be tempted back on a rainy day.

Might be better enjoyed by a fan of the genre I'll end this with.

A real page turner

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this book and could not wait to get get back to it each day.
But I must say the end was rather disappointing and without wanting to give anything away I can't imaging demons are that nice or easy to fool!

Read them ages ago and loved listening to them!

Great narration and a great storyline that isn’t overly complicated but keeps you hooked. Nightingale is a great character.

Jolly good fun

First time I have heard this writer and was pleasantly pleased with my choice. Its a good fun, slightly spooky romp and the narration fits the book perfectly. Its not the most thought provoking or intellectual of reads, but then I don't always want to be challenged by what I listen to. In a nut shell, its well written, well narrated and fun.
