About this listen

It will be no easy task to fill the shoes of a local legend like DCI Charlie Woodend, the newly promoted Monika Paniatowski tells herself – particularly when he’s still a very real presence in Whitebridge – but given a little time, she thinks she can grow into them.

Yet time is the one thing she does not have. On her first day in the new job, a severed female hand is discovered on the riverbank. And not only that, but the killer has already alerted the press. Only hours into the case, she find she can no longer trust her colleagues – or even herself – and the urge to pick up the phone and beg Woodend for help becomes almost irresistible.

This story was excellent from start to finish!

I always enjoy books read by Nicolette McKenzie, she is very good with the narration and has a very pleasant speaking style.
