About this listen

The fifth book in a new series of procedural crime thrillers featuring DI Walsh and the team of the Last Chance Saloon, To Hunt a Magpie is perfect for fans of L.J Ross, Ian Rankin, Damian Boyd and Ann Cleeves.

Thirty years ago, a group of five child detectives - Tommy, Luke, Tess, Jane and Daniel, along with their dog, Dexter - made the national press with their crime solving. Nicknamed the Magpies, their adventures were written up as novels by author Reginald Troughton and released to children around the world, including a 10-year old Declan Walsh. But now, someone is targeting the Magpies, with Reginald brutally murdered while writing a last, 'lost' adventure. And DI Declan Walsh and the team of the Last Chance Saloon must not only solve Reginald's murder with the 'help' of these rusty amateurs but, at the same time, save the surviving members of the Magpies from a devious and determined killer with a chilling connection.

I love these books but there were so many characters in this one it was too easy to get confused about who was who! Still I stuck it until the end!

Brilliant

A satisfyingly convoluted plot with great characters - a page-turner. Can’t wait for next in series.
