Summary
Harry Barnett thought he had left his military career behind, so he is startled when two figures from his past turn up on his doorstep after 50 years. An old friend has organised the reunion to end all reunions: a weekend in the Scottish castle where the ex-comrades took part in a psychological experiment many years before. They haven't seen each other since.
As they set off on their all-expenses-paid jaunt to Aberdeen, the old friends are in high spirits. But the cheerful atmosphere is quickly shattered by the apparent suicide of one of their party.
When a second death occurs, a sense of foreboding descends on the group. It appears that the past is coming back to haunt them, a past that none of them have ever spoken about. Their recollections are all frighteningly different. So what really happened?
Then when one of them uncovers an extraordinary secret, he becomes convinced that they will never leave the castle alive....

Too long but a darn good story
Wonderful narration for a complex story. It could have been shorter and still been a good story and the narrator kept me listening when things really did slow down but my first Goddard novel and I think I will look for another. Hard to write a synopsis that doesn't give the game away - and once the game is known, then it takes a lot of believing, but if you can get beyond that then just don those earphones and keep going. Not bad at all!

Enjoyable read
Beautifully narrated. Enjoyed catching up with Harry and Barry. Some thought provoking issues, stirred memories of the trawler which sank in the Irish sea

Brilliant
Definitely my favourite author presume this is the last of the series as Harry is in his 70s that’s a shame but plenty more to read by the same author.

Good Goddard
Interesting take on a previously done idea (reunion with some hiccups) but done in the brilliant way Robert Goddard always weaves historical fiction with present day action whilst remaining clear and engaging.
Not many authors can pull off such complex tales with the skill he always exhibits in his work. Also a decent length book as usual,
I look forward to the next Harry Barnett adventure. (I always imagine he might be played by Sir Michael Caine should one ever reach the screen.)

Nice trilogy
A good story to end the trilogy of Harry Barnett books, this is the sixth Robert Goddard book I’ve listened to and each one has been superb
