A band of vigilante executioners roam London's hot summer nights, abducting evil men and hanging them. Sentenced to death is the gang member who abused vulnerable girls, the wealthy drunk driver who mowed down a child and the hate preacher calling for the murder of British troops.

As the bodies pile up and riots explode all over the sweltering city, DC Max Wolfe embarks on his most dangerous investigation yet: hunting a gang of killers whom many believe to be heroes....

I really love this series. The narrator is fantastic too. Great pace and just complicated enough that you have to pay attention but not so complicated that you hate it.

Great series.

Parsons style is lovely and lyrical, even when the action is gritty. And Colin Mace could recite the phone book and I'd be entertained. His transitions are seamless.

Parsons never disappoints.

the story has a good premise and the potential for an awesome read with his wonderful cast of characters . Unfortunately, Mr Parsons skipped about with nary an explanation or use of transitions and suddenly you are two squares up without any clue whatsoever of how you got there. Did Mr Parsons abridge his story or skip difficulties in writing to churn out a book?

Is his head in the story or his eye on the money?

What did you love best about The Hanging Club?

I loved the way it made me think. Putting myself in situations and how I would feel and what would I do. The mother who was terminal so she got her revenge.

What other book might you compare The Hanging Club to and why?

If there is a book out there that you could compare with any 3 of Tony Parsons book I haven't read it yet.

Which character – as performed by Colin Mace – was your favorite?

Colin Mace has mastered every character in these three stories. Absolutely the best narrator going. So much so I have listened to other books because he is doing the talking. If there is an award for the best narrators he should win hands down. John in the Black Museum and Scout I look forward to his performance. But its so hard to choose.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Fasten your seat belts.

Any additional comments?

The story, the detail, the explanations. I can't wait till the next one.

WAY TO SHORT

I love this book. It was my favorite in the D I Wolfe series by Tony Parsons. The story was very unpredictable but yet still seemed quite plausible. I particularly like these books because of the detail given to his daughter , Scout, and their Dog Stan. Cute and violent. Quite a combo, but it balances out perfectly.
