Publisher's Summary:
Get hooked on Heck: the maverick detective who knows no boundaries.
The perfect listen for fans of Stuart Macbride and Luther. DS Mark Heck' Heckenburg is used to bloodbaths. But nothing can prepare him for this. Heck's most dangerous case to date is open again. Two years ago, countless victims were found dead - massacred at the hands of Britain's most terrifying gang.
When brutal murders start happening across the country, it's clear the gang is at work again. Their victims are killed in cold blood, in broad daylight, and by any means necessary. And Heck knows it won't be long before they come for him.
Brace yourself as you turn the pages of a living nightmare. Welcome to The Killing Club.

Members Reviews:
Chasing and shooting
Not much of a story. Without the chasing and shooting book would be a couple hours. Much to skim in this one.
Engrossing with great detail
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. The horror in this one is of armed violence and fear of betrayal, and so would suit most crime readers.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Killing Club?
The geography round Britain as the police try to track down the criminals includes a trip to Holy Isle and great use is made of this local landmark.
Have you listened to any of Paul Thornleys other performances? How does this one compare?
I don't think so, and his style needed a bit of getting used to. He has a very clipped style, but after a while it was easy to listen to.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Monsters are being hunted but by the Police or other monsters?
Any additional comments?
Not only just as good as the first two Heck novels, they seem to be getting better.
A Great Listen.
What made the experience of listening to The Killing Club the most enjoyable?
Enjoyed the story and love Heck, the central character. Have read or listened to all this series and look forward to more from this author.
What about Paul Thornleys performance did you like?
I love Paul Thornley`s narration. He can make drinking tea sound dangerous and exciting. He also narrates the Stephen Leather and Simon Kernick novels. If I know he is going to be the narrator for a book I'm interested in, I make sure to get the Audible copy.
What the Heck..
Another fast paced, action filled chapter in the life of DS Mark Heckenburg . Very entertaining, he is fast joining my list of favourite detectives, Morse, Wallender, Sherlock etc.
The audio is OK the narrator great
Any additional comments?
I have now listened to four books by Paul Finch. Each one gets progressively sillier and sillier. I personally felt I was listening to Die Hard in England. Whilst our maverick copy swaps his white singlet for jeans and trainers, his agenda like that of Bruce Willis, is to save innocent people from nasty bad ones.
