About this listen

It starts with the death of a teenage runaway, killed when she leaps from a motorway bridge into the speeding traffic below. The girl's identity remains a mystery - until the discovery of the dead girl's details matches the profiles of three other girls; all recently have been reported missing.

A further shocking discovery causes the whole file to be handed over to Greater Manchester Police's Counter Terrorism Unit, with leading detective constable Iona Khan in charge.

Compelling listen

I found this on the audible plus catalogue and it was really good. I know now that there was a first book which makes sense and wish there was a third book in the series due to the way it was left. For a full understanding I might go back and read the first .

I really liked the narration the way she changed the characters was amazing.
