Synopsis

Two crimes, two tangles of emotions and thwarted love...From the author of BEYOND REACH.

A man is chained inside a tunnel and then dismembered and scattered along the tracks by the early morning train from Portsmouth to London. The beginning of DI Joe Faraday's most gruesome case yet, but is it a bizarre suicide or the cruellest of murders?

Checking the list of missing persons as the police attempt to identify the body DC Winter comes across a missing man, someone who stepped out of his ordered life with no hint of leaving. He's not the man in the tunnel, he's simply disappeared. The only person he can find who knew him works in the city morgue...

From AudioFile:

Featuring Australian Detective Joe Faraday, ONE UNDER begins with the discovery of a bodyevidence of a brutal murder. The book's pace then slows considerably as Hurley provides listeners with a somewhat dry introduction to police investigative procedures. Soon, though, the plot takes off, and the story flies. The result is an intense, gripping, albeit dark, novel, which is not for the faint of heart. Tim Pepper's narration matches the story's intensity. At first, his Australian accent requires concentration, but eventually, like Hurley's prose, Pepper's style grows on the listener, and the initial accent problem seems to melt away.
