Summary

A band of vigilante executioners roam London's hot summer nights, abducting evil men and hanging them. Sentenced to death is the gang member who abused vulnerable girls, the wealthy drunk driver who mowed down a child and the hate preacher calling for the murder of British troops.

As the bodies pile up and riots explode all over the sweltering city, DC Max Wolfe embarks on his most dangerous investigation yet: hunting a gang of killers whom many believe to be heroes....

Have gone through the Max Wolfe books in rapid succession

Murder mystery, crime etc are not genres I've ever read before but I loved these three books.

Colin Mace's narration is easy on the ear and fits in perfectly with the carrier - I've now downloaded another book based on him narrating it.

I'm looking forward to the next one and hope Mr Mace continues as the voice of Max Wolfe

Brilliant!!

Colin Mace is fantastic narrator for Wolfe, tough cop with a soft side. Great story, with pace and characters you wanted to know more about, and all with the backdrop of the history and underbelly of London city. Each book gets better and I can't wait till the next!

Fabulous Book

Looking forward to the others in the series. Loved his previous books but was unsure that he would be as good a good crime writer. How wrong I was.
