Though billed as by "Sapper" on Audible, where I bought this, it is not by H C McNeile, but by Stephen Deas "writing as Sapper"

Very disappointing. I love the real Sapper (H C McNeile) books, but this is the palest of imitations. It takes the name Bulldog Drummond but ignores most of his history as established by Sapper, and attempts to establish a slightly different history and a new master villain, presumably with the idea of writing a series. However it lacks hte original's wit and writing skill, and Hugh (I don't think he is ever called 'Bulldog' to his face, in Sapper's books) is not the charming 'ass' of the original.

The narrator has a good range of accents and voices, but unfortunately I was not listening on a device that offered variable speed and his delivery . was . so . slow . and . de . lib . er . ate . as to destroy any pleasure in the story.

To enjoy the real Bulldog Drummond stories, listen to "Bulldog Drummond", "The Black Gang", "The Third Round", and "The Final Count" read by Roy McMillan, all available on Audible. ( )
