About this listen

The gripping crime thriller from bestselling author Wes Markin

A lonely recluse. A missing girl and a community in fear.

When the body of a young local girl is found next to an isolated lake, the main suspect is the old recluse who has lived next to the lake for many years – especially when the young girl’s purse is found on the old man’s doorstep.

But DCI Emma Gardner and her partner DI Paul Riddick aren’t so sure. Why would the old hermit leave such an obvious clue? And who would want to set the old man up?

As they dig deeper into the murder they discover a community in fear, determined to keep hold of long buried secrets. And Riddick is convinced that his own dark past is somehow linked to this crime, too.

Gardner fears that she may never get the answers she needs, until a break leads her down a path she’d rather not face. One that runs directly to her own front door…

So glad I have found Wes as an author. I spent the whole of the day today listening to it as it was so gripping and you couldn't work out whodunit..Aubreys narration is excellent as usual !

Wow another brilliant listen.

I love the fact that even the goodies are human and can also be baddies. I found myself mentally shouting at them at times, thoroughly enjoyed the tale

An entertaining tale

I read the first book in this series and thought I would try the second through Audible. The style of story and writing lends it self perfectly for this format. Several twists to keep you intrigued to who the “killer” is and also lots of mini subplots to keep it interesting. Highly recommend

Great easy listen

Aubrey is a gift as a narrator. His voices are so perfect you know who is saying what even before the book tells you. Story was amazing again. Can’t wait for the next book to see if Paul and Emma can fight their demons.

Fantastic listen again
