11:59 by David Williams

Marc Niven is a radio DJ doing his late night broadcast which featured listeners phone-ins. At 11:59 a listener called Hassan asks for a Valentine's Day dedication. The pace of the programme is fast and Marc did not pick up on excactly what Hassan said. Another listener was alarmed at the words Hassan used and alerted Marc. Did Hassan simply have a slip of the tongue? Marc decides to find out the truth and embarks on an investigation.

This thriller is set in the north east of England and was written in 2010. I purchased the 558 KB Amazon Kindle version. It is easy reading that also gives a nice insight into the production of radio programmes. How there are lots of listeners trying to get onto the show and a researcher manages the incoming calls to select only the best to present to the broadcaster.

Marc explores the region and a sequence of events shape the story to an ending which is no surprise but is a logical conclusion when the reader examines the relevant parts. The reader meets a fair range of characters as the plot develops. Suspicions are raised and some are false. This is a regular thriller with nothing outstanding but it filled my daily read requirement. This book is okay and I will vote it 3 stars on Goodreads.
