Great twisting story
This is an excellent book a page turner I thought at the beginning with the mortuary section I wouldn’t carry on but fortunately I did Paul Thornley and Olivia Darnley bring the story to life with their Narrative I recommend this audio book to any one that wants to be entertained and blind sided with every page I would expect nothing less from Simon Kernick

cleverly woven storyline
This is fast-paced and engaging from the outset. The narrators are excellent and I couldn't stop listening. Even though many of the characters are unsavoury, I still wanted to know the outcome.

Another fast paced, page turning rocket ride story
Simon Kernick has set his own bar high, through his back catalogue, so I am always apprehensive he can keep it up.
He did, this was another fast paced page turner brought to life with great performances from Paul Thornley and Olivia Darnley.
There is no tired format with these books, you never know where they are going, or where the twists and turns take you, with the never one-dimensional characters.

Amazing non stop listen
Couldn’t stop listening, the whole day. Best book of the year for me. Captivating, tense in places. My favourite narrator as well .
