"Not a nice man."

A Jimijix is a sort of modern day jester, a performance artist, a clown, who entertains with his tricks in the various branches of a popular chain restaurant in Ireland. And Dave Doyle was good at his job - until a masked robber gunned him down during one of his sessions, right in front of his brother, Killian. With the murders of his wife and child only three years before, Killian sets out to discover the reason why his brother had to die.

A tense thriller, told in the first person from Killian's P.O.V., the reader is taken down a warren hole of local crime and intrigue, meeting several dubious characters, criminals and police alike, all with something to hide.
As narrator, Harry Frost's gentle Irish accent is both pleasing and easy to enjoy. He takes on the character of Killian, further bringing to life this man, grief stricken but also puzzled and angry. Frost's reading is pace perfect and his voicings of the other protagonists is distinctly individual and appropriate. A fine performance.

At my request, iwas freely gifted with a complimentary copy of Jimijix by the rights holder via Audiobook Boom. Thank you: I enjoyed it immensely. Highly recommended to all thriller fans.
