About this listen

The ghost of Sherlock Holmes is dead, but who will solve his murder?

The Great Detective's ghost has walked London's streets for an age, given shape by people's memories. Now someone's put a ceremonial dagger through his chest. But what's the motive? And who - or what - could kill a ghost?

When policing London's supernatural underworld, eliminating the impossible is not an option. DI James Quill and his detectives have learnt this the hard way. Gifted with the Sight, they'll pursue a criminal genius - who'll lure them into a Sherlockian maze of clues and evidence. The team also have their own demons to fight. They've been to hell and back (literally), but now the unit is falling apart....

Really enjoyed the first two novels, but this one doesn't come close. Difficult to follow. Needs editing felt forced and contrived.
There's a good book in there somewhere.

No surprise that the next two books haven't been taken up by the publisher, real shame because the first books were rather good.

Not as good as the previous two books.

After a somewhat clunky first book in series, the second and third build brilliantly. The characters, overlapping plots, excellent twists are out in full force in this installment. I can't wait for the next one!

This series goes from strength to strength

Truly Brilliant

This is book 3 of what was meant to a 5 book series. Unfortunately the author decided not finish the series, so it stops here. There are many unresolved issues which makes things a little frustrating.

Book 3 of 5

the shadow police are back on the case.
it could be a good idea to recap the earlier books before jumping in. unless your memory is a lot better than mine (not that hard). I have grown to like the team and felt that this book (although very good ) a little rushed in places and did not feel for some of the lesser characters has much as I could have done. On the whole a most enjoyable experience, now I have to wait for the next book.

A every day London story NOT

The author has some entertaining ideas, but unfortunately he is not a very good storyteller. The movement of the plot and the actions of the characters often feels jarring. It leaves me more annoyed than entertained or satisfied.

Damyan Lynch on the other hand is delivering a solid performance.

The story is jarring
