About this listen
The critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling Declan Walsh series continues...
Waiting for a taxi can be murder.
Someone is killing London "black cab" taxi drivers.
Seemingly unconnected, but all with the same MO, bodies are being found across the City of London, and only two clues connect them; an unknown killer with a crooked walking cane, and the title to a folk song placed on rolled paper inside their mouths.
Now, DCI Walsh and his team, still reeling after the end of Harvest For The Reaper must hunt down the killer, falling into a world of taxi apps, cab driver tribalism, a map of death related to "The Knowledge," and a cold crime from decades earlier, while fighting the potential closure of their unit...
Is this the last case for the Last Chance Saloon—no matter what happens?
The nineteenth audiobook in the critically acclaimed, internationally bestselling series of procedural crime thrillers featuring DCI Declan Walsh and the team of the Last Chance Saloon, Crooked Was His Cane is perfect for fans of J.D Kirk, L.J Ross, Ian Rankin, Alex Smith, Rachel McLean, J M Dalgliesh and Ann Cleeves, among others.

Story
My nine-year-old daughter Hollie should be leaving school smiling and laughing with all the other children but she’s not here. I run frantically, checking everywhere, my voice growing louder, but I can’t see her bright blue eyes and heart-shaped face anywhere. Pure panic washes over me. This is my worst nightmare. Her teacher asks me if she should call the police. My heart stops. I shake my head and pretend I’ve made a mistake. I see a look of suspicion creep into the teacher’s eyes. But the police can’t know. No one can. My hands shake as I realise I’m completely on my own.

Story
A brutal double murder on a Norfolk beach horrifies the town of Cromer. The way the victims died is chilling and so Norfolk’s Major Investigation Team task DS Ashley Knight to manage the case. It soon becomes clear that the murders were carefully planned and the finger of suspicion points to an organised crime gang, but as the evidence mounts, a far more sinister theory emerges.
