About this listen
In the middle of Cork, in the middle of the day, a fire crackles in a local dance studio. Thirteen women, all promising stars of Irish folk, die in the blaze, their young lives cut short by a tragic accident. But where others see tragedy, DCI Katie Maguire sees murder.
This is not the first fire to sweep through Cork. And in one previous case, the victims were dead before the fire was started. As Katie Maguire investigates the strange, obsessive world of competitive Irish folk dancing, she must face her most chilling killer yet.

Another Great Audiobook by Graham Masterton
This latest story is as you’d expect from Graham Masterton.
The plot and storyline is brilliant.
I’ve really enjoyed listening to it.

Great story shame about narration
A good tale totally ruined by the whiney narration. It took days to get through it as could only stand so much at a time. I hope the next book has a different narrator.

Shame
Well, I couldn't wait for this book to finish!
Don't get me wrong I love this series on the whole but this narrator was just AWFUL!!!!
It's never a good idea to change narrators during a series as you become invested and it's like going back to a friend with each book. A different narrator is like changing the whole cast of actors, it just doesn't work!
This narrator has the MOST IRRITATING way of reading. She has a sing-song repetitive pattern which is so monotonously annoying I was tempted more than once just to skip this book altogether!
I have to admit also that the constant sex scenes are in my opinion really unnecessary...I'm certainly no prude but it just gets boring eventually and I end up fast forwarding to get back to the story and plot.
I'm now looking forward to the next book, read once again by the original narrator...yay!!!

great storytelling although spoilt by the gratuitous sex scenes, that don't bring anything to the telling.

Another Great Story
Graham Masterson is clearly masterful at using words to paint an extremely detailed picture, perhaps to the extent that some of the violent scenes may appear a tad gratuitous. That said, if you know that going in, you simply need to appreciate the talent involved.

My last Masterton book review.
When a writer uses rape as titillating entertainment, a line is crossed where the merits of any story become snared or soiled in by the act described in such a detail, making the rest of the story banal and sordid. This is the problem with this particular book, it is not a matter of morality, just not entertaining or valid to expand on the plot or build a better character.
Not for me, degradation of people and animals is not entertaining or something I want to spend time reading.

Couldn't get past chapter 3
I love the Katie maguire books but this is the 3rd one that has been ruined by a terrible narrator. I got to chapter 3 and couldn't carry on, she is reading so slowly that it got frustrating and boring

why the new narrator??
love the series but changing narrator at this late stage has taken her from McMahon's powerful hardened detective to sounding like a squishy grandma in one book.
