I’ve listened to a number of the author's books and while this is an interesting, if somewhat implausible story, I never felt as engaged as I had with previous novels. The book starts well with an intriguing mystery as to how the bones of a young woman, who went missing on holiday in Thailand, ended up in a field in England. However, the narrative thereafter goes off in different directions and latterly deteriorates in a series of mass of killings. I also grew weary of the clichés of the genre: maverick cop, who is taken off the case because of going out on a limb; conflict with superiors, broken marriage etc., etc., but worst of all the story ends unresolved on a cliffhanger, presumably with the hope of selling the next book, but it short-changes the reader.

The narrator is excellent as usual.

Well crafted character in Ray. Enjoyed the conflict between characters. Will read the next one.

I am a big Simon Kernick fan so this was a must read for me. The story at times is tense and nerve wracking. I was drawn into the story, making it feel as though I was there, on the perphery, observing. I have to say though, that I found the penultimate chapter a bit predictable, but the final chapter redeemed that, whetting my apetite for the next book, The Hanged Man. I listened to this book on Audible, which was a first for me. I was able to listen in places where/when I wouldn't have been able to read the book and I loved that. If you like tense thrillers, this is for you.

Have to say , really enjoy listening to Paul Thornley as a narrator. Difficult to choose a book, that turns out to be as listenable as you had hoped or the reviews said it would be. Great plot, characters and ending. The combination of a good story by Kernick and narration by Thornley made a great Listen.

Great Listen

Enjoyed this audiobook, but felt let down by the "non-ending".

I've purchased many of Simon Kernick's audiobooks so surprised that this book appears unfinished.

Narrator great though.

Unfinished!

The book was read very well, story to similar to every other crime thriller ever wrote. Lost me for the last hour when it was all so called coming together.

Same old same old

Not a bad story but a bit long winded and boring at times. I fell asleep several times while listening! Could have been condensed and read by someone with a more interesting voice, a few different dialects maybe as it was difficult at times to know which character was which! So....... only three stars from me.

I purchased the book yesterday and I haven't been able to stop listening. The story is filled with lots of twists and turns. A wonderful crime thriller and it's nice to have Tina Boyd back in the storyline. Thank you Simon Kernick for a wonderfully well written crime story.

Can't get enough of the story!!!!

Very fast moving gripping plot with a twist at the end. Unfortunately not a stand alone book though - two many loose ends not tied up!!

Enjoyable

Thrilling
