About this listen

Rookie detective Anna Travis has been assigned to her first murder case - a series of killings that has shocked even the most hardened on the force. Over the past eight years there have been six victims - all women from similar backgrounds, all killed in an identical way. Then a seventh body is found, but this one doesn't fit the pattern.

Anna is determined to earn the respect of her male colleagues, and find justice for the victims, but when a vital piece of information links a high-profile suspect to the killings she is faced with a difficult choice. As a figure in the public eye, his arrest would cause a media frenzy. But if he is innocent, Anna's hard-fought-for reputation would be destroyed once and for all.

As usual Lynda La Plante does not fail to write a gripping book. Thoroughly enjoyed the story and the narration.

Couldn’t stop listening. I was on the edge of my seat for days. I really liked the narration, and the different accents - could really imagine these characters in life. My favourite type of book is crime and murder so this ticked all the boxes!Starting book 2 now!

Best book I’ve heard in years

This is darker and more sinister than previous Le Plante audiobooks. Nevertheless, it is an enjoyable listen with the new character Anna Travis who is ably supported the other new characters. It keeps you guessing until the end.

Great New Series

I loved the way the plot unfolded and the characters developed. The narration was a bit distracting but ok most of the time.
