About this listen
Matt Scudder is well and truly off the booze, but he still spends time with some of his old drinking pals, including Mick Ballou. Mick is worried - a garage full of bourbon has been ripped off and two of his henchman killed in cold blood. Mick wants Scudder to look into it - he reluctantly agrees. The following weekend Matt's mentor from AA is shot dead at point blank range - Matt knows it should have been him. Now the case is personal.

Slow burner
Took a while to get going, this one; you wonder at first whether the opening is all padding, and you frown that it needed a blue pencil; but then it gets underway, and you discover that every word was needed and pertinent. The character of Mick is so beautifully drawn. Took me a while, too, to get used to yet another different narrator. This one will not be to everyone’s taste, though he’s absolutely suited to the role of Matthew Scutter - rough, mildly bourbon-soaked voice; his pace is slow, but I remedied that by speeding the narration artificially, to 1.1, or 1.2. The story is a good one with its twists and turns and plenty of colour and a little dose, too, of melancholy. It’s a good listen.
