The Drop

By: Howard Linskey

Narrated by: David Nellist

David Blake likes to think he’s no gangster. He's a white-collar criminal, working for gangster Bobby Mahoney, enjoying the money pouring in. Trouble is, a big chunk of that money has just gone missing along with Geordie Cartwright. Has Geordie done a runner or been killed by a rival gang? In a bloody finale, Blake has to make an agonising choice and someone has to pay the ultimate price....

Love this narrator

If you could sum up The Drop in three words, what would they be?

Newcastle Cracking characters

What did you like best about this story?

actually I loved the guy who read it. His accent was incredible and he never missed a beat

Which character – as performed by David Nellist – was your favorite?

I think he did a great job with the main character but i also really liked his women's voices and kinaiir. he was great as the Glasgow family

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

it made me laugh out loud at some of the phrases I recognize from my childhood and at those things he said about his girlfriend Laura. It was funny that her mothers ashes saved him.

Any additional comments?

i have purchased the other two books and the other one you have with the same narrator. it was like listening to Jimmy Nail.

Enjoyed

Sometimes a very violent but well read and with an entertaining story.
I will listen to more of his books.
