Midnight on a moonlit beach. Six cops execute four thugs after a heinous crime. They are unaware that there is a witness to the executions. Thrilling action explores tactical, ethical, and criminal choices made by officers of the law. A stark image of moral ambiguity underpins their struggle to maintain courageous and precarious control of all-engulfing crime. Plain-dealing cops face scrutiny in an emotional journey through choices made in the day-to-day confrontation with evil.

What made the experience of listening to Plain Dealing the most enjoyable?

I came across this months ago but never got the chance to listen to it, so just parked it. Then I stumbled across the fourth book in this series and read it quickly because of the blurb, which was intriguing and shocking. It was a knockout. So I listened to this. Wow. Even better. Totally gripping and quite different from the norm. Exotic accents - beautifully clear and understandable - and crisp dialogue and horrific action. Wonderful.

What other book might you compare Plain Dealing to and why?

I suppose it's like the Jason Bourne trilogy or the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy. Anything exciting and action-filled, with believable characters. This is the same.

Have you listened to any of Ian Patrick’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No. This is the first one for me.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yep. For sure.

I enjoyed this a great deal. The narration is good, though one or two of the characters' accents were not sustained. I had already read the book and greatly enjoyed it, and then received a code for the audiobook with the instruction to review it exactly as I wanted to, with no obligation from the company or expectation that I should review positvely. I needed no such guidance. It is thrilling, dark, menacing, and very exciting. There is a horrific murder at one point (in fact, more than one) but it is all handled with finesse and style. I heartily recommend it.

Stylish police thriller
