    About this audiobook

    Joss Grand once ruled the Brighton underworld with his sidekick Jacky Nye - until Jacky washed up by the West Pier in 1968. Though Grand's alibi seems cast-iron, Luke, a true crime writer, is sure there's more to the story, and he convinces the criminal-turned-philanthropist to be interviewed for a book about his life. Soon Luke realises that in stirring up secrets from the past, he may be in terrible danger.

      Luke is a true crime writer and is in search if a story. Whilst stayingbin Brighton he stumbles across Joss Grand a reformed gangland boss. Luke is soon drawn into the mystery of the death of Jacky Nye, Joss Grand's closest friend.My Thoughts:I have read all three previous books by Erin Kelly and loved them. This book I didn't love as much. The story was ok but I found that for me it wasn, t gritty enough for its content. I even hate to say that towards the end I was getting quite bored with it.I was really expecting a lot more knowing that Erin Kelly is a good thriller author. I was expecting a few good twists and turns, and although there was the odd red herring but I found the story becoming predictable and the reasons why a bit thin.This book was a little bit of a let down and I was disappointed overall as the outline of the story was there with a promise of a good thriller.I will still seek out further books but this one is the authors weakest so far.
