About this listen
DEEP DECEPTION. TWISTED FATE.
'As great a contribution to the noble British genre of detective fiction as any writer for decades' Stephen Fry
Thames Valley has a new Superintendent - DCS Wainwright - young, charismatic and ruthless, charged with pushing through big reforms. Her in-tray is full of problems - and at the top of the pile is the problem of Wilkins and Wilkins.
Trailer park boy DI Ryan Wilkins, interesting looking in baggy trackies and over-large lime-green puffa. In his personnel file is a handwritten note scribbled by the outgoing Super: 'Do not, repeat not, give him responsibility.' And posh boy DI Ray Wilkins, improbably handsome in navy blazer and tan chinos: 'Thinks too highly of himself. More experience needed at the wet end.' Their previous investigations - though somehow successful - were models of disorder and dysfunction. The new Super needs to take action.
There's been a shocking murder in the heart of Oxford, the stabbing of a security guard during an attempted armed robbery. Meanwhile, an elderly professor of linguistics goes missing from his home in cosy Iffley Village.
The high-profile murder investigation can be safely handled by reliable detective DI Hare. The entry-level enquiry into the wandering academic can be given to the problem duo, with instructions to keep it simple. But when the body of the professor is found, still dressed in his pyjamas and dripping wet, spreadeagled on a hotel lawn miles from home, things get a little unexpected for the Wilkinses. Will Ray keep on top of the brief? Will Ryan keep it together?

Blood groups…
Agh! Blood groups faux pas spoiling a good story again.
Someone who is blood group A can have a child who is blood group O (or whatever way round it was, I can’t remember now but it doesn’t actually matter in this instance). Ryan being A (or O) and little Ryan being O (or A) does NOT mean he’s not his biological father.
As well as being irritating for the reader it has the potential for causing distress to families with similar blood group set ups who may believe what they are reading.

Top book!
This is another excellent book in this series. The plot was engaging and there are some revelations too - I cannot say any more because I do not want to add spoilers.
Each book makes you appreciate the characters more, especially as we go through their personal highs and lows. The narration by Matt Addis is spot-on, and he really has cracked the voices and the accents of the characters which makes such a difference as a listener.

Outstanding Performance
Wonderful combination of terrifically written characters and a great performance that lifts them off the page. The story is engaging of course, but for me, it’s the characters that drive this series. I loved listening to this. Matt Addis is a brilliant narrator. I highly recommend!
