Summary
Bestselling phenomenon Simon McCleave is back with a gripping, atmospheric new crime thriller series set on the Isle of Anglesey.
Will there be blood in the water?
Three years ago, DCI Laura Hart was the top Hostage and Crisis Negotiator for the Greater Manchester Police. Then her husband was kidnapped. Despite her best efforts to reason with the criminals, he was brutally murdered.
Now living on the Isle of Anglesey in Wales, Laura is slowly healing. Then she gets a call: armed drug dealers have seized a tourist boat – and her ten-year-old son Jake is on board. There’s no other negotiator available, and the police need her to step up.
With the life of a loved one yet again on the line and memories of the last time she failed still searingly fresh, Laura is living her worst nightmare. Can she lay to rest the ghosts of her past in time to save her son?
An atmospheric, edge-of-your-seat read that’s perfect for fans of LJ Ross, Ann Cleeves and Elly Griffiths.
‘Action-packed! A great thriller in a gorgeous location.’ – international bestselling author Lisa Gardner
'A harrowing story set against a stunning backdrop. Anglesey becomes McCleave's newest brutal playground.’ Morgan Greene
‘The tension keeps you gripped until the last page.’ Rachel McLean

Annoying turn of phrase
The author has the incredibly annoying habit of starting sentences like this:
“Looking up Laura did X”
“Catching her breath Laura did X”
“Sitting on a chair Laura did X”
and so on. It is awful to listen to and i stopped listening twice before plodding on to the end.

A bit annoying
Not a lover of the Welsh accent so found the narrative a bit annoying, story was okay but the jumping around was a bit confusing

Predictable and Cheesy
This started off really well but soon disintegrated into a predictable and squirm worthy tale. I don't recommend it.

Good start to the series
The to-ing and fro-ing of the story line was annoying - but the plot hung together well.

Not great
Was looking forward to book given the location and reviews but left disappointed. Very drawn out story line and storyline not very credible. Won’t be purchasing another of the series.
