About this listen
The higher you climb, the harder the fall.
When a woman plunges to her death from Edinburgh's iconic Scott Monument, crime reporter Doug McGregor is sent to chase the story behind the shock.
But Doug is juggling more than headlines—he's also on the hunt for a notorious rapist, newly unmasked and lurking somewhere close to home. Teaming up with his trusted police contact, DS Susie Drummond, Doug uncovers a chilling connection: the victim was the daughter of a high-ranking Member of the Scottish Parliament.
As they dig deeper, Doug and Susie are thrust into a world of sinister secrets, where powerful people will stop at nothing to bury the truth. The question is–how deep are they willing to go?
Falling Fast is the first book in the McGregor & Drummond series, starring a tortured journalist and a driven detective. Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart MacBride, JD Kirk and Chris Brookmyre’s Jack Parlabane novels.

Very good story
I enjoyed this story I did pick because of Angus King’s narration which is always excellent
The story itself was good and I didn’t think I knew the answer with this one cos I usually guess who dunnit but not this time
I always find it strange when stories are set in Edinburgh and I know all the places - it is good to have stories set in Scotland though with a great narrator too
I’m going to listen to the next one now just one thing though I’m not sure I agree that Doug is “tortured ” ….

Somewhat different story making it a change to have a reporter and cop in harmony. This hack would not survive in the real world, too much like a detective because of having a conscience.
Brilliant narration from Angus King as always.

Brilliant narration from Angus King as always.
Give it a read, it's worth it.

very progressive theme...strong female police officer, all a bit tired now
Well written but story was predictable, the narrator's performance is excellent, saves the story to be honest

Written by a child, awful grammar and embarrassing characters. Giving this a 0/10. Could do better, but probably won't.
