Summary

The Red Room is a terrifying and gripping psychological thriller from the Top Ten best-selling author, Nicci French.

Enter the Red Room - where nightmares become reality. He almost took your life. Now his is in your hands....

After psychologist Kit Quinn is brutally attacked by a prisoner, she is determined to get straight back to work. When the police want her help in linking the man who attacked her to a series of murders, she refuses to simply accept the obvious. But the closer her investigation takes her to the truth behind the savage crimes, the nearer Kit gets to the dark heart of her own terror.

The Red Room

Boring, just boring. No pace and poor story line. Won't be reading any more of Nicci French's work, it's too pedestrian.

I still don’t get it

Without giving anything away I don’t understand why the killer killed the first victim. Was it sexually motivated? I’ve tried listening back over it, but nope, it just doesn’t make sense. If anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful!
So whilst this was potentially a good story (if a little far fetched in places) I just don’t get it!

Excellent story

I very much enjoyed this layered storyline, which only revealed the truth at the very end.

Right til the end

So I thought the killer was going to be one person, but it turned out to be someone completely different, I struggled a bit to get into it, opens with a bit of gore and bed time story but after about 6 chapters was coming to bed early to
Listen. Love the flat mate, she
Makes me laugh out loud, we all have that friend. Really enjoyed this

A superb listen.

I've never read, or listened to, anything by Nicci French before, but I certainly will in the future. The story is gripping from the veg inning, with lots of twists. A truly recommended listen.
