About this listen

Discover the BRAND NEW utterly gripping Yorkshire Murders series from bestseller Wes Markin.

A calculated killer. A life hanging in the balance. A decision that changes everything...

For the first time in her life, DCI Emma Gardner finds herself unable to concentrate on the job she loves. Her thoughts are now always with her old colleague Paul Riddick, who lies desperately ill in hospital - a tortured man in life, now facing death.

When a young woman dies from seemingly natural causes, Emma can’t help feeling that something isn’t quite right with the case, but she needs her team to pick up the slack whilst she focuses on Paul.

The case proves more complex than anyone imagined and will test the team like never before. But unbeknownst to everyone, there is another threat lurking even closer to home – Emma’s unpredictable brother Jack. And with Emma distracted, he has free rein to put right the dark and twisted grievances from his own past.

But his actions, when they come, will be devastating. And will destroy everything Emma loves…

Fantastic listen. Narration and storyline were both brilliant. I have mixed emotions with this episode~no spoilers.

I love all the books in this series but this one stands out in an already remarkable series. This book is Wes Markin at his very best, add in the wonderful heartfelt narration of Aubrey Parsons and you have one of the best listens available in this genre, and thats coming from someone who listens to many, many books of this type. One not to be missed in my opinion. I'm now waiting patiently (well maybe not too patiently really) for the next instalment.

Decent story, most of it was excellent but too much time spent on a characters memories/hallucinations from the past.

Too much time shifting.

I have been following this series but I am finding the last two books so depressing. Will they? Won't they? Now it looks like it's come to an end and we are left up in the air ......
