Resumen del Editor

The first three crime thrillers in the Detective Sebastian Clifford series together in a single collection for the first time.

Web of Lies, Book 1

A trail of secrets. A dangerous discovery. A deadly turn.

Police officer Sebastian Clifford never planned on becoming a private investigator. But when a scandal leads to the disbandment of his London-based special squad, he finds himself out of a job. That is until his cousin calls on him to investigate her husband's high-profile death and prove that it wasn't a suicide.

Clifford's reluctant to get involved, but the more he digs, the more evidence he finds. With his ability to remember everything he's ever seen, he's the perfect person to untangle the layers of deceit.

He meets Detective Constable Bird, an underutilized detective at Market Harborough's police force, who refuses to give him access to the records he's requested unless he allows her to help with the investigation. Clifford isn't thrilled. The last time he worked as part of a team it ended his career. But with time running out, Clifford is out of options. Together they must wade through the web of lies in the hope that they'll find the truth before it kills them.

Speak No Evil, Book 2

What happens when someone's too scared to speak?

Ex-police officer Sebastian Clifford had decided to limit his work as a private investigator, until Detective Constable Bird, aka Birdie, asks for his help.

Twelve months ago a young girl was abandoned on the streets of Market Harborough in shocking circumstances. Since then the child has barely spoken. With the police unable to trace her identity, they've given up. The social services team in charge of the case worries that the child has an intellectual disability, but Birdie and her aunt—who's fostering the little girl—disagree. They believe she's gifted and intelligent, but something bad happened and she's living in constant fear.

Clifford trusts Birdie's instinct, and together they work to find out who the girl is so she can be freed from the past. But as secrets are uncovered, the pair realize it's not just the child who's in danger...

Never Too Late, Book 3

A vicious attack. A dirty secret... and a chance for justice.

Ex-police officer Sebastian Clifford is quickly finding that life as a private investigator is never quiet. His doors have only been open a few weeks when DCI Whitney Walker approaches him to investigate the brutal attack that left her older brother, Rob, with irreversible brain damage.

For nearly twenty-five years, Rob had no memory of that night, but lately, things are coming back to him. Whitney's worried that her brother might–once again–be in danger.

Clifford knows only too well what it's like to be haunted by the past, so he agrees to help. But the deeper he digs, the more secrets he uncovers, and soon he discovers that Rob's not the only one in danger.

Surprised

I as a mentioned was very surprised the stories were well put together and very enjoyable. Will look forward to listening to more stories by Tunis author. I found the narrator was also excellent.

Totally Hooked

I love these new characters, and the plots are sharp and the pace is perfect. It is a good listen and keeps you interested without being too gory or dark. The narrator is wonderful, I was dubious about his female voices, but soon found I was off and running. I love the fact that they are loyal and kind. I am a true fan now. Thank you for a lovely series, now I must get on and start Volume 4......

Great plot and charactera

Very good narrator and an intriguing series. I enjoyed the the plotting and feel like you get a good sense of the characters.

Good Books

The first book was the best.
The last book was not so interesting, but enjoyed the characters.

Good beginnings

Good and fun characters, stories get better with each installment.
Narrator is really good overall; gets a bit weak in the female voices, makes them seem weak at times.
Overall like the series so far.

Great audio performance. Looking forward to hearing more in this series

The stories held my attention, and the various character’s support by the actor was terrific.

Entertaining and wholesome

I appreciate the character development. The plots were easy to follow and held interest.

Great 3 Volume Set!

After listening to a few dull books in this genre by other authors I decided to take a chance on this set. What a refreshing experience it was! All the elements are here. Strong stories that moved at the right pace, characters unexpectedly interesting, making for a compelling listen. But what brings it all together and takes it to another level is the stellar narrator who tells the story and makes the characters real. Especially the two main characters, Seb and Birdie.

The good thing is, there are more books in this series, and the next one is already downloaded in my Audible library ready to be started.

Great narration of procedural

Decent story lines, fairly predictable characters, and nice details of English locations, but not a stellar mystery

exciting and funny!!!

I love the characters and the plot! I love there wasn't any inappropriate language and the narrator did a wonderful job!
