About this listen
He lived by the rules – until the only rule that mattered was survival.
Recovering from a gunshot wound that nearly cost him his life, Tom Douglas isn’t focused on himself – his concern is for his brother Jack, who seems to have vanished without a trace. Jack’s past is as dangerous as it is complicated. Years ago, he faked his own death to escape an organised crime group, and ever since, he’s been living in the shadows, always one step ahead of those who want to hunt him down.
Now, Tom’s worst fears are coming true. Has Jack’s past finally caught up with him? If so, what has become of his family? Tom has to find them, but the answers he seeks are hidden in a brutal underworld - one more dangerous than anything Tom has faced before.
As he delves into Jack’s secretive life, Tom is forced to confront ruthless enemies, putting his own life on the line. With time running out, he must decide how far he’s willing to go and how much he’s prepared to sacrifice, knowing it will mean crossing a line he swore he never would.

As good as ever
I love all the Tom Douglas mysteries, and am not sure what I'll do without him.

Tension and Venice- perfect
Loved most of it but it did slightly push the boundaries of credibility but isn’t that what story telling is all about?

Amazing as always from Rachel
I found Rachel’s books by accident years ago as I got more interested in crime drama, it was the fact it was all based near me literally down the road that drew me in. Every book, and I’ve read / listened to them all had been gripping from start to finish. I’m sad now I have to wait again xx

Just the most intriguing listen
I love this writer and this book didn’t disappoint. From the very start it had me hooked. The constant turns were enough for me not to want to stop. The story weaved in and out until you were invested in the character.
Loved it

Mission Impossible meets Miss Marple.
I've thoroughly enjoyed the adventures of DCI Tom Douglas and his team until this book. The storyline is similar to previous books within the series (child kidnapping), but with a Mafia, Mission Impossible twist.
Tom chases through Venice with his not-so-in-hiding brother Jack, as they endeavour to save Jack's daughter, who an evil witch has kidnapped, while Tom's team tries to find his wife and family, who have gone missing.
It's a race against time, with Tom breaking far too many laws for such a high ranking policeman.
A book that makes you stretch your imagination a little too far.
Lisa Coleman's narration is fabulous, which probably saves the whole show!
3.5/5

Brilliant
The DCI Tom Douglas books are fantastic. Waited a long time for this latest but very worth it. Great writing and wonderful narration.

I was so excited when I heard that there would be a new Tom Douglas book and it did not disappoint. Great to have the characters back. Really enjoyed this book.

Not The Best
This book was one that I’d really looked forward to. I’ve enjoyed all of the DCI Tom Douglas books and was excited that there was another. But the story just didn’t grip me. It felt a bit stale and took some time to get going. I’m guessing there won’t be any more now which is a shame.
