About this listen
The hilarious new Mystery Man crime caper from the master of menace and mirth. Beauty is in the eye of the be header. The wife of crime writer Augustine Wogan disappeared shortly after entering the exclusive clinic of the mysterious Dr Yes, plastic surgeon extraordinaire. As fatherhood approaches, the Small Bookseller with No Name is persuaded to investigate. He soon finds himself up to his neck in murder, make-up and madness - and face to face with the most gruesome serial killer since the last one.

If you could sum up Dr Yes in three words, what would they be?
Observant, clever, humorousWhat did you like best about this story?
I love this series of Colin Bateman's books. The main character is a self- centred hypochondriac who attracts trouble and then in his efforts to extricate himself from it drags both himself and those around him further into the mire. I love the dispassionate way he observes the people around him. His personality is perfect as the narrator of the story because a more socially aware character would not compute people in the way he does. As someone who knows Belfast quite well I love the references to streets and places around the city and the humour is dry and clever and real.What does Stephen Armstrong bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Stephen Armstrong tells the tale the way the main character would tell it. His accent is easy to listen to and the story is told perfectly.Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I love this series of "The Mystery Man" books. I have read some and listened to some. They are all funny page-turners/the audio book equivalent. You are left with an affection for the main characters.I think the voice of a Northern Irish Narrator does add something to the authenticity of this audiobook.
Any additional comments?
Start with the first book in the series,"The Mystery Man" and enjoy!Brilliantly quirky and funny thriller!
