About this listen
When the body of a red-haired young man is washed up on the shore of the beautiful Isle of Mull, Detective Superintendent Lorimer's tranquil holiday away from the gritty streets of Glasgow is rudely interrupted. The body has been bound with twine in a ghoulishly unnatural position and strongly reminds Lorimer of another murder: a twenty-year-old Glasgow case that he failed to solve as a newly fledged detective constable and which has haunted him ever since.
As local cop DI Stevie Crozier takes charge of the island murder investigation, Lorimer tries to avoid stepping on her toes. But as the similarities between the young man's death and his cold case grow more obvious, Lorimer realises that there could be a serial killer on the loose after all these years.
As Keep the Midnight Out switches dramatically between the Mull murder and the Glasgow cold case two decades earlier, DC Lorimer tries desperately to catch a cold-hearted killer. Has someone got away with murder for decades?

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Found this difficult to listen to, there seemed to be little differentiation between chapters and therefore hard to keep up with what seemed sudden changes of character and location.If you’ve listened to books by Alex Gray before, how does this one compare?
n/aWhat didn’t you like about Joe Dunlop’s performance?
More the recording that was irritation rather than narrationDo you think Keep the Midnight Out needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Where does Keep the Midnight Out rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Not a gripping murder mystery by any means but draws you in and makes you feel like a part of their communityWhat did you like best about this story?
I loved the slow, charming easiness of the whole thingWhich scene did you most enjoy?
I think I enjoyed the interview with the parents of the dead boy...it was heartbreaking but had other dimensions that really made you thinkWas there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I was moved when the mother of the boy who was found dead 20'years before, finally found out that her son was dead and wouldn't be coming back! She had known deep inside but not allowed herself to believe it!Any additional comments?
The book wasn't, gripping or pacey or like any murder mystery that I've read before. But the slow pace and lives of the local people really reeled you in to life on the Scottish isles and made you feel a part of it. A refreshing listen...Enjoyable Scottish Isles murder mystery
