About this listen

Discover the heart-pounding thriller with an unforgettable ending from bestselling author, Ross Greenwood

Perfect for fans of Mark Billingham and Stuart MacBride.

A murder made to look like suicide. Another that appears an accident.

DI Barton investigates the tragedies that have shattered a family’s lives, but without obvious leads the case goes nowhere. Then, when the remains of a body are found, everything points to one suspect.

Barton and his team move quickly, and once the killer is behind bars, they can all breathe a sigh of relief. But death still lurks in the shadows, and no one's soul is safe. Not even those of the detectives…

How do you stop a killer that believes life is a rehearsal for eternity, and their future is worth more than your own…?

I've listened to plenty of books in the format of each chapter being narrated by a different character and they are very good, especially in thrillers where the killer's perspective really helps the listener to get into the mind of that killer.
Highly recommend this book.

Compelling

I thought the story was great although it seemed to take a long time to pick up speed.
unfortunately I find the narrator very difficult to listen to, as I did in the first book... The Snow Killer. It has put me off listening to the other stories in the series.

Great story but....
