Publisher's Summary:

David Callan has proved himself a ruthless and effective assassin working for a small section of British intelligence. As a consequence he has made many enemies and very few friends. The Russians have uncovered a British spy inside the KGB but are willing to trade. The price they demand for the moles safe return is the death of Callan, in revenge for being a thorn in their side. Callan has no say in the matter; he is to be sacrificed. Yet with his eyesight failing and his guns, money and passport all taken from him, Callan has no intention of going quietly.

Members Reviews:

Poor narration

Probably one of the best Callan stories unfortunately, spoilt by unemotional narration with emphasis in the wrong places. Some mispronunciation of words - the worst being the name Meres. Anyone who watched the excellent TV series knows it Meres like in Windermere, not Merez.

Title: A Magnum for Schneider

Author: James Mitchell

Narrator: Daniel Coonan

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 13 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-14-16

Publisher: Soundings

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

In February 1967, a one-off television drama in the series Armchair Theatre introduced the surly, complex and ferociously downbeat character of David Callan - a professional hit-man working for a very dirty section of British Intelligence. As portrayed by the actor Edward Woodward, Callan was to become an iconic figure of espionage fiction, appearing in novels, a film and an immensely popular television series. This is the first of five novels written by Callan's creator, James Mitchell, featuring his human, but not necessarily pleasant hero.

Members Reviews:

Merres? I think you mean 'Mears'

How any narrator could have researched his work so sloppily as not to know that Toby Meres' surname rhymes with 'fears' beats me. 'Merres' is wrong on so many levels that it really grated all the way through. The rest of the reading is weakly characterised too: Hunter and Meres not upper class enough, Lonely far too assertive and Callan himself is too bland. Mitchell's story - beautifully written, strongly plotted and economically constructed - survives this weak performance, but I hope subsequent readers will listen to Edward Woodward, Russel Hunter and Anthony Valentine - Callan, Lonely and Meres from the tv series - to get an idea of how it should be done.

Members Reviews:

Tough book with a beautiful and unexpected outcome

This is a book that I have real mixed feelings about. The story starts with a lot of abuse, torture, and killings witnessed by a young son a 1920's /30's back woods moonshiner (an all around really bad dude and horrific) father. Globe, the son witnesses scene after scene of torture and looses everyone and everything he ever loves. Abuse of that kind is horrific. I wanted to put it down, but knowing this author was a Christian and because of the wonderful cover of the book I kept reading. Eventually I understood the difficulties we all go through and will turn us away from a loving God, but because there are godly, well meaning, and willing servants for God among the people in our lives we can overcome what we have gone through, God's love can redeem us and we can live for him. I am so thankful I did not put it down, but instead saw how God used Globe's / Charlie's life as a witness for others in his environment. I have needed people like Jeremiah and his wife in my life.

Worth it and more

Hands of The Father is a very well-written book. I found myself wrapped up in it very quickly, and the pace of the book felt exactly right. I liked some of the historical aspects of it as well as the insight into rural thinking in the 1920's. It does contain heavy subject matter as it involves child abuse and murder, but it is worth your time. The ending is great.

... have read most of Darrell's books and he gets better with each edition

I have read most of Darrell's books and he gets better with each edition. I like the way he uses his faith to remedy the problems of the characters.

Avis des membres:

Embarrassing

What would have made L'empire des loups better?

Credibility and less ridiculous narrators.

Has L'empire des loups turned you off from other books in this genre?

Definitely.

How could the performance have been better?

The sound effects were sometimes rather ridiculous, and the book could have done without them.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from L'empire des loups?

All the drama and killing. None of it worked.

Any additional comments?

This really reads like a horrible action movie.

Sheila did it again

Five stars for Lady in red. I could not put it down literally. I love anything to do with the seahills series. Can't but love Lorraine and Luke. The bet was hilarious. This murder mystery was fabulous. I did not guess who did it. Loved loved loved this book. All geared up for the next one. Oh and Jacko if u r reading this u r a naughty boy. Lol. Enjoy. Would highly recommend.

A belter!

Sheila Quigley- the Queen Of Brit Grit â returns to her best-selling Seahills Estate series after a break to pen the high-octane Holy Island thriller trilogy. And to say the break has reinvigorated her is an understatement.

In Lady In Red, multiple plot threads abound â a man fresh out of prison and bent on revenge, a hit and run killing, a gruesome murder, a cop drugged and left for dead, a missing teenager and a seismic blast from the past who is back on the scene and up to no good.

Lady In Red is just as gritty and down to earth as the previous Seahills books, with likable and recognisable characters, but the pace and multiple POVs make reading it a breathless and fast-moving race to a tense climax which leaves just enough story strands dangling to make reading the next Seahills novel â The Sound Of Silence â pretty much essential. A belter!

Excellent!!

Sheila did it again! another fantastic read. Following the Seahills series I feel like I am part of their lives as old characters pop in and out of the stories. Strong, gritty DI Hunt is the kind of heroine you would always want on your side. Great read, can't wait for her new book "The Sound of Silence" to be released!

fantastic

Another amazing read from sheila quigley. Could not put it down and as usual I am left wanting more. I can't wait for the next book!

When the police investigation stalls, the Gatsos family turns to private investigator Alex Mavros, who finds himself dealing with a dysfunctional family with more than a few skeletons in its closet. He believes the key to the mystery lies in the ship owner's shady past - but the truth is more disturbing, and closer to home, than he could ever have imagined.

No depth in "The White Sea"

Review of The White Sea by Paul Johnston

A Greek shipping tycoon is kidnapped while his son is shot dead through the eye. The local police, in conjunction with the wealthy heirs, hire a local highly acclaimed private investigator who has been in retirement for the past five years. The investigation reveals the possible involvement of Colombian drug dealers and Russian thugs, but the tycoonâs family is trying to keep the motive for the kidnapping secret.

This is a story about extreme wealth and international racketeering involving the shipping industry and the attempts of other greedy criminal syndicates to take over. But it is also a story about people who were morally and physically injured by this corruption and their attempts to even the score by reverting to a means of even higher and more serious corruption. Running parallel to the major plot line is another story, continuous throughout, that comes together and blends nicely into the storyline near the very end. I kept thinking that I had it all figured out.

While the tycoon was being held captive, he was forced to face many of his past business and personal indiscretions by a pseudo-tribunal comprised of masked judges who also acted as jurors. But these adjudicators were more than peers and the sentence they considered constituted more than restitution.

This is the seventh in a series of Alex Mavros mysteries and the first that I have read. Although I enjoyed this, I admittedly had problems identifying all of the Greek characters due to their long and complex names. I did get over this hurtle about two-thirds of the way through, but it was troubling. But what made up for my confusion, over the obscure names, was the brilliant description of Athens and it's surrounding islands as well as the political commentary that helped to explain how Greece ended up with such vast economic woes and disparity.

This was almost an enjoyable read, but it lacked any real and serious tension that usually accompanies a mystery. The end was also a bit trite having to do with the arrival of another cavalry that helped save the day. At times, the story lagged along and I could have done without the romantic endeavors of Alex and his sidekick. I would rate this with 3 stars.

An Adventure in Greece

This book is the seventh in a series of novels about Alex Mavros, who is a finder of missing people. Taking an unusual step for me, I decided to read this book in the series when I had read none of the previous novels.

I did not see much depth in the characterizations in this novel, and I am wondering whether this is because the author is relying on the reader's familiarity with some of the characters and not repeating back stories with each book. This is a good thing, but in some cases I felt like I was missing something.

Title: Trophies

Language: English

Release date: 10-12-16

Publisher: Bloodhound Books

Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Suspense

Publisher's Summary:

When DI Colin Strong interviews a suspect on suspicion of handling stolen goods he's convinced he's heard the voice before. Nearly 25 years ago the tape of Wearside Jack taunted West Yorkshire Police and his suspect fits the profile.

Then the body of a known burglar shows up and a mysterious metal case is discovered at the scene. Strong turns to his close friend, journalist Bob Souter, and embarks on an awkward alliance to probe areas he is unable to explore.

As the murder suspects start to disappear Strong must discover just who the shadowy figure inciting fear and panic amongst those he encounters is.

Strong wants to bring a murderer to justice and Souter is hungry for a story. Who will get to the truth first and can their friendship remain intact?

Members Reviews:

Deep & interesting

This story had an interesting twist with Wearside Jack brought up and the main story of murder. The police were believable. Not over grumpy or ignorant like sometimes! Though as got deeper we saw another side to 1 hmmmm

Overall enjoyable tale & great narrator with local accents. Local to me anyways.

Very good story and characters

Where does Trophies rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far?

It isn't one of the best though I did enjoy the story and the characters were believable too.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Probably DI Strong, because he's the main character and relatable as a Yorkshireman.

What does Richard Taylor bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you had only read the book?

Definitely the accents but I would say that the narration doesn't even compare with other audiobooks I've read. It' honestly felt like he was just reading the book rather than acting it at times.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

SPOILER ALERT!! Towards the end, the thought that Bob Souter might've been shot by police.

Any additional comments?

I will listen to the whole series, I haven't been put off by the narration.

Great narration - thrilling detective novel

What made the experience of listening to Trophies the most enjoyable?

Richard Taylor has a distinct voice that is clear and easy to listen to. There are many characters in Trophies and Richard Taylor manages to vary his intonations and speed while giving each character his own voice. That is even more difficult because in this story the sound of a voice is extremely important as it is the focus of DI Strongs investigation. But that works out well and I loved hearing the Yorkshire accents. Whereas Richard Taylor did the mens voices excellently I was not always taken in with his version of the womens voices, like for instance Souters sister Jean. I like Richard Taylor taking breaks within the narration at the appropriate points, adding to the joy of listening to this audiobook. It is a great audiobook and entertaining story; Richard Taylor enhances the Yorkshire feel of it with his matching voices. All in all, I have found Richard Taylors voice easy to listen to and the recording of Trophies of an excellent quality.
