About the author
Mark Capell
14 books56 followersMark Capell is a former documentary television director. He made shows for the BBC, ITV and satellite. He got to meet all sorts of weird and wonderful people, including a gangster who offered, for 'cost price', to kill anybody who upset him. Needless to say, he never took up the offer.
Instead, he decided to take his storytelling skills to the world of fiction.
His debut novel, 'Run, Run, Run', became a number one bestselling crime thriller on Amazon.
He followed it up with a series of novellas about a failed actor who becomes a successful undercover cop because of his inordinate ability to lie - The Myles Morgan Mysteries.
'Vows to Kill' was his second full length novel and is about a detective who receives a death threat: I will kill you on your wedding day.
A compilation of all four Myles Morgan Undercover stories is now available in 'Myles Undercover'. The first story 'No Hero' can be downloaded here on Goodreads for free.
Capell's latest novel is Café Insomniac: 25-year-old Justin opens an all-night café, but is soon on a quest to find out how his insomnia is connected to the murder of a customer.

Interesting concept, though not a new one. I enjoy the idea of Free Reading (as in the practice, not getting the book for free lol)
A very quick read/listen. The narrator (author) did a good job of it.
I did feel a little confused towards the end, but I don't know if that is just because I was distracted by work.
I found this because I had forgotten my ipod with all my audiobooks on it, and stumbled across this. It filled a few hours of my time and wasn't that horrible. I would possibly seek out the next one, which is a full length story I believe.
