I really enjoyed this book. True story and first in the series. The author Anthony Horowitz agreed to follow the detective Daniel Hawthorne and write books about the detectives life. The story was told in an interesting and humorous way and kept me engaged throughout. 

The audiobook narrator was amazing and added to the humour and enjoyment of the book - I highly recommend the audiobook and I look forward to listening to book number 2.
