About this listen

Ted Darling was about to kill a man. For the first time in his life...

You’ve never met a copper like Ted Darling. He’s small, quiet. He doesn’t smoke. He’s packed in the booze. But he’s a Specialist Firearms Officer. With black belts in four martial arts.

Then a shift in circumstances makes him swap guns for the CID. His first case is the brutal murder of a teenage girl. His new boss thinks he can wrap it up easily. Ted has doubts over the suspect.

Has he made the right choice in switching jobs? Or has he, as his Firearms boss warned him, committed career suicide?

Grab your copy now to find out why everyone’s talking about the Ted Darling crime series.

First Time Ever

Since I don’t like anything being read out to me, this is the first time ever that I have listened to a book. I love the Ted Darling series and just had to hear the voices of the characters. Almost all of them were as I had heard them in my head...just two of them were slightly disappointing...to me.
Christopher Corcoran did a great job.

Not enough depth

It felt a bit like Adam Ant, mini superhero, saving the day with skill, grace and thoughtfulness throughout. Just not gritty enough for me and crimes all solved quickly. I’m afraid that Ted’s boyfriend’s was extremely irritating too!
