About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

It's a thin line between revenege and murder...

To the public, he's a hero: a killer who targets convicted paedophiles.

Two men have already been tortured to death and, for the police, their cases are not a priority.

But DC Maeve Kerrigan believes that no one should be allowed to take the law into their own hands.

As the killer's violence begins to escalate, Maeve is forced to confront exactly how far she's prepared to go to ensure justice is served...

A good listen, I like the main character Maeve. The storyline is somewhat disturbing but is brought to an end having caught all the ‘baddies’

Engaging!

Pretty good story, though, for me, there’s more rather pedestrian development of Maeve’s live life than is quite merited (yet, at least) I felt. We’ll see how things go with subsequent episodes. Wouldn’t want to put anyone off trying the series, but I thought the previous title in the sequence was better balanced. Good narrators.

Gave this a go after not being overly impressed with the first. Bit too wordy and a lot of droning but better story and the characters developed even more. Will have a look at the next one!

Muuuuuch better than the first one.
