About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Three women. One Killer.
Talking to strangers has never been more dangerous...


When the body of forty-four-year-old Karen Simmons is found abandoned in remote woodland, journalist Kiki Nunn is determined this will be the big break she so desperately needs.

Because she has a head start on all the other reporters. Just a week before Karen was killed, Kiki interviewed her about the highs and lows of mid-life romance. Karen told her all about kissing strangers on the beach under the stars, expensive meals, roses. About the scammers, the creeps, the man who followed her home the other night...

While the police appear to be focusing on local suspects, Kiki sets out to write the definitive piece on one woman's fatal search for love. But she will soon learn that the search for truth can be just as deadly...

Great characters well developped.
However I really disliked the Kiki narrator, her lack of intonation felt like an AI voice.

another great title from Fiona Barton

I was waiting for this book by F Barton. The story is robust and full of twists. A pity though that the real killer was not punished.

Not bad

I always enjoy Fiona Barton books, and the story was pretty good, with a few wild twists!, but as mentioned by others, unfortunately Kiki’s narration, was certainly a challenge, but pleased I stuck with it

Good story awful narration from Kiki character

Great ending and plenty of plot twists. Maybe a bit slow at the beginning, but worth staying with it.

Gripping as ever

Another real page turner which listened to in two or three days. The actor who plays Kikki has a distinctive voice and was also a character in Barton’s last book Local Gone Missing and I found that a bit distracting at first. I love Ronnie and wished she could have had a bigger part to play. But, the writing is so clear, the characters clearly drawn and the different plot lines weave together was brilliant. Can’t wait for the next one.

Story with amazing twists and turns.
