About this audiobook

The last case of police negotiator Jack Nightingale’s career ended in the death of nine-year-old Sophie Underwood. Since then he’s saved his own soul from the devil…but now he’s haunted by Sophie’s cries for help. And when a gangbanger lying in a hospital bed with no brain activity repeatedly drops Jack’s name, Nightingale realizes Sophie may desperately need him. But why?

Police superintendent Ronald Chalmers is determined to pin the gangbanger’s almost-murder on Jack, but he is preoccupied with Sophie and whether or not she’s in eternal torment—or if demons are torturing and deceiving him in order to gain the ultimate prize. With time running out, he’ll have to face down Chalmers and the police, south London gangs, and Hell itself in order to find the answer…

A riveting climax to The Nightingale Trilogy, Nightmare is a freight train of action, intensity, and suspense that delivers the force of eternal damnation and the power of the human soul.

    In the final of the Jack Nightingale trilogy (Nightfall, Midnight) Jack is faced with stakes of the highest order.This third installment doesn't let up and is at least as enjoyable as the first two. A terrific finish to the mysteries and life-after-death threats of the first two books.

    In Leather’s horror novel, tough, supernaturally inclined PI Jack Nightengale is pulled from his flat by the police who cart him off to assist with their inquires. It turns out that a coma patient has begun to speak and it’s Jack’s name he calls for. The police are tempted to charge Jack for attempted murder, but for Jack—the voice is calling out from the grave for help.As the twists and turns abound, we discover more about Jack and his past, and those around him. Jack also gets involved with the underworld and tangles with danger.All in all this is an entertaining read that leaves the reader to anticipate the next installment.
