About this listen

Track a stalker. Catch a killer.

When a mysterious DVD is delivered to Northumbria Police Headquarters, DS Matthew Ryan and Detective Superintendent Eloise O'Neil are among the few to view its disturbing content. With little to go on, the only lead comes from the anonymous and chilling woman's voice narrating the blood-soaked lock-up depicted on screen.

But with no victim visible nor any indication of where the unidentifiable crime scene is located, Ryan and O'Neil get the distinct feeling someone is playing with them. What is certain is that the newly formed special unit has just taken on its first challenging case.

As further shocking videos start arriving at police stations around the country, the body count rises. But what connects all the victims? And why are they being targeted? As the investigation deepens, the team is brought to breaking point as secrets from the past threaten to derail their pursuit of a merciless killer....

The Death Messenger is a tense police procedural that follows The Silent Room in the thrilling Matthew Ryan series by Mari Hannah.

Enjoyed the previous book in the series, but found this one to be quite laboured & felt it came to abrupt conclusion. Disappointing.

Have enjoyed another of Mari Hannah's books. Looking forward to next one being available to listen to. Tim Bruce's voice is very relaxing.

Any additional comments?

This is an acceptable second book in the series. The story line was not as good as the first book but it did develop the characters. I look forward to the next one.

As good as ever

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
loved it. cant wIt to hear what happens for Ruan next. just as good as the first book.

Great

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The female lead, supposedly brilliant, is subject to holding grudges, moping about something that happened a year ago, and tempers. The male lead similar, with added monologues about whether he is going to say anything to her. Very tedious.
The narrator makes the Grace character sound furious the whole time.
Did not find this a pleasant listening experience.

Far too much angst
