Cracking read

Great story full of twists, turns and intrigue and superbly performed by Paul Thornley. I found his narration really brought the characters to life and hope in the future he will be used by the author again.

Storytelling at it’s absolute finest

Just loved this book. The characters, the storyline, such a brilliant book. Lynda la Plante has to be one of the best writers, if not the best, in this genre. Addictive listening.
