About this listen

John Milton hasn't seen Elijah Warriner for three years. The last time they met, Milton's efforts to keep the boy safe didn't go exactly to plan. Now Elijah is a promising boxer, preparing for the bout that will take him to the big time. Milton decides that he will spend the week before Christmas in London so that he can watch the fight.

But Elijah's burgeoning fame has brought him to the attention of old acquaintances with long memories and grudges to bear. They have noticed Elijah, too, and decide that now is the time to settle old scores.

Can Milton keep the young man and his mother safe, or will Elijah's old running mates get to him first?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I am so glad Milton went back to book one. I worry that he has underestimated Miss T, however. Why does he think it is safe to walk away from her? I worry for his back! As always, the plot moves along and what happens, unlike in so many similar, but not as good novels, all feels sensible, like it could have happened just like that. Dawson just gets better and better, his writing improving like a good red wine. Not that he would ever read this, but I would like to say thank you to him! A first class story.

Narrator was very good, well written but my one criticism was that the story was very predictable with no twists to the story.

Good but predictable

I thought the previous book in the East End fell rather flat at the end with Milton leaving at short notice and two characters feeling aggreived. The author saved another story from within and what a cracker it is. The youngers have grown up and lead a plot which is a must read if you are a Milton fan ... I am ! It is a bit short but I enjoyed it !
