About this listen

A secret kept for a thousand years....

After the dramatic theft of a priceless artefact from Durham Cathedral, the rest of the world believes that DCI Ryan and his team were able to recover and return St Cuthbert's cross to its rightful home. But Ryan knows the cross he recovered was a fake - far from being over, their problems are only just beginning....

Just as Ryan and his team begin to unravel the truth behind the spate of mysterious thefts, something even more priceless is stolen - something that can never be replaced.

As the nationwide manhunt continues without success, Ryan is thrust into despair-until he realises the answer lies not in modern policing, but in an age-old secret known only to a chosen few. To recover what's been lost, he must first crack 'Cuthbert's Code', following the trail of a long-dead saint across the wild, unpredictable hills and valleys of the borderlands.

Can Ryan find what he's looking for, before it's too late?

He's going to need a miracle....

Murder and mystery are peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunit set amidst the spectacular Northumbrian landscape.

Rather too much hero worshiping of the lead character, weakest story of the series maybe time to retire ?

I’m really enjoying this series. Great characters and mystery with plenty of misdirection, action and suspense.
Excellent narration, with great pacing and character voices; he’s one of my favourites and he really enhances the suspense and tension.

This case follows on from the previous book. This is about a group who believed that St Cuthbert held the power to heal everything and they are prepared to kill to have a piece of him, such as his cross and his bones etc.

Ryan knowing that people including one of their own were being murdered in a grisly torturous way, tried to conduct a covert investigation. But things don’t go to plan and now his loved ones including himself are targets.

At present his parents are helping to look after Anna and his baby daughter, due to Anna being attacked in the previous book. Ryan sensing danger tells them to go to the family home in Devon until the case is closed.

Sadly their plans go awry and Anna is taken. Now he is hunting yet another madman and looking for his wife….. How will it end? Will Ryan get to Anna on time…..

My goodness I am not sure how Ryan is surviving after all the harrowing cases that have also included personal tragedy. He has a strong loyal team and is driven by a strong sense of Justice……

please please please never stop writing the dci ryan books . I have never read any books like them in the crime fiction genre. The characters are so realistic they've almost become part of my life. The humour between Ryan and Phillips is particularly enjoyable. I can't wait for the next story to unfold
