Summary

DI Kate Young can’t trust anybody. Not even herself.

In the bleak countryside around Blithfield Reservoir, a serial murderer and rapist is leaving a trail of bloodshed. His savage calling card: the word ‘MINE’ carved into each of his victims. 

DI Kate Young struggles to get the case moving - even when one of the team’s own investigators is found dead in a dumpster. But Kate is battling her own demons. Obsessed with exposing Superintendent John Dickson and convinced there’s a conspiracy running deep in the force, she no longer knows who to trust. Kate’s crusade has already cost her dearly. What will she lose next?

When her stepsister spills a long-buried secret, Kate realises she’s found the missing link - now she must prove it before the killer strikes again. With enemies closing in on all sides, she’s prepared to do whatever it takes to bring them down. But time is running out, and Kate's past has pushed her to the very edge. Can she stop herself from falling?

*Trust and Danger*

DI Kate Young reeling from the revelations that there is a corrupt group within the police force, one particular member within is her mentor. They were also involved in taking the life of the love of her life. Now Kate still hears his voice in her head and she has to watch herself so she doesn’t keep getting caught talking to herself. In this instalment there is a rapist on the loose and she only has a very small team. Her mentor secretly wants her to fail, but Kate is on the warpath in her head to take down the corrupt group and try to catch the rapist. The rapists signature is carving a message in his victim’s back.

Whilst this is all going on her step sister and nephew have arrived back in the U.K. from Australia and unbeknownst to them the rapist’s real target is close to home. Kate has her hands full and is suddenly in a race against time, trying to deal with the investigation and not knowing who to trust. She has to rely on the voice in her head to guide her…… whatever happens Kate will go the extra mile to protect those she holds dear

Interesting story

I enjoyed the story thought I knew where it was heading in places and it went somewhere else entirely so that was good the only downside to it was the narrator, I'm sorry to be unkind but I found it too high pitched for most of it so I could only listen in small segments as it gave me a headache, however that being said I still found it interesting enough to listen to the end.

Brilliant Book

I have read all of Carol Wyer’s books and this one didn’t disappoint. The storyline was very good and kept me guessing right to the end.

Very weak story I'm afraid.

the narrator had to be tuned down as it was far too fast for my liking. And the story line is quite weak.
