For DI Joe Faraday, the funeral of a young colleague, killed in a head-on car crash, is a bitter end to another grim week. And now the seemingly untouchable Detective Paul Winter, master of the scam, has been hurt in a way he could never have imagined. But there’s no time for grief in a CID squad. A disgraced gynecologist is missing, and his caseload of maimed women is a murder-suspect list from hell. It’s an impossible workload, and if that wasn’t enough, the politicians and the suits are about to make Faraday’s life even harder.

From AudioFile:
It's a shame that American listeners sometimes bypass British audios in favor of the homegrown. That's because there are some listening gems imported from the British Isles--not even available here in print--that equal the better U.S. offerings. THE TAKE, read by Tim Pepper is one. This procedural has something for everyone. Inspector Faraday's assistant is killed, his colleague's wife is dying of cancer, a troubled surgeon is missing, and a serial mugger is on the loose. Pepper's smooth British accent is a pleasure to hear. He gives you a medley of characters that's not hard to take at all.
