About this listen
2014: The Commonwealth Games are coming to Glasgow and security is extra tight, particularly after a mysterious bomb explodes in nearby rural Stirlingshire. As the opening ceremony for the Games draws ever closer, the police desperately seek the culprits. But Detective Superintendent Lorimer has other concerns on his mind. One is a beautiful red-haired woman from his past whose husband dies suddenly on his watch.
Then there is the body of a young woman found dumped in countryside just south of the city who is proving impossible to identify. Elsewhere in Glasgow people prepare for the events in their own way, whether for financial gain or to welcome home visitors from overseas. And, hiding behind false identities, are those who pose a terrible threat not just to the Games but to the very fabric of society.
Alex Gray's stunning new Lorimer novel, set against the backdrop of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, brings the vibrant city to life in a race to stop the greatest threat the city has ever known.

Not a very comfortable read
I'm glad I've listened to this book but it's my least favourite Alex Gray book. The content of the story is uncomfortable to listen to and the plot felt too contrived at times. Joe Dunlop reads well enough but he makes all the female voices sound weak and docile which doesn't fit the story.

Excellent book
I could not stop listening to this one. Great story, interesting characters and lots of action. It's the second Alex Gray that I have read and I would recommend this to every reader/listener.

Entertaining
The narrator was perfect, a Scottish accent for the Scottish set book... Really fab... Really clear and had me gripped.
The story is good, so many peoples lives intertwined yet still easy to follow!
