Dead Man Walking

An Ishmael Jones Mystery, Book 2

By: Simon R. Green

Narrated by: Gildart Jackson

"Call me Ishmael. Ishmael Jones. I am the man in the shadows, that even the shadows are afraid of. The secret agent whose life is the greatest secret of all. And some of the cases I work are trickier than others."

A rogue agent has come in from the cold and wants to spill his secrets. The Organization wants Ishmael to find out if Frank Parker is who he says he is, what he really knows, and why he has emerged from the shadows after all this time.

Ishmael heads to Ringstone Lodge in Yorkshire, where Parker is being held to find that an atmosphere of fear and suspicion prevails. As he and his fellow residents are menaced by a series of alarming and inexplicable incidents, Ishmael sets out to prove that it's human trickery rather than any supernatural being behind the seemingly ghostly goings-on. But matters take an unexpected turn when one of their number is brutally murdered, and once again, Ishmael must turn detective in order to entrap a twisted killer before they strike again.

Continuing the series...

This series was recommended to me by my stepson, and I am so very glad I decided to give it a listen. I do love the British wit, and I think Penny is an absolute delight! My what a good sci-fi story to listen to with a fabulous British accent, and the details of places in England. I can't stop the series now!

Quite enjoyable and full of suspense!

Quite enjoyable and full of suspense! I enjoyed this book a lot! I look forward to reading the other ones as well.

Mysterious otherworldly being finds adventure in England

Excellent series! Very unique: plot lines, characters and their growth. Mysteries
are skillfully plotted, even tho there are no real surprises, well worth the time to travel/ solve the mysteries by the two main charters. Books are in sequence but after the first two; enjoy Ismael and his lady love’ s travels and mysteries.
