About this listen

From the international best-selling author of the DCI Ryan mysteries.

In a world gone mad, who can you trust?

Fresh from a high-profile case in the Paris fashion world, elite forensic psychologist and criminal profiler Dr Alexander Gregory receives a call from the New York State Homicide Squad. The wife of a notorious criminal has been admitted to a private psychiatric hospital and can no longer testify in his upcoming trial. Without her, their case will collapse, but amid reports that the staff are as unpredictable as their patients, who can the police trust?

In desperation, they turn to an outsider, and now Gregory must find the courage to step inside the fortified walls of Buchanan Hospital to uncover the truth. The question is, will he ever be the same again?

Murder and mystery are peppered with dark humour in this fast-paced thriller set amidst the spectacular Catskill Forest.

Critic reviews

"LJ Ross keeps company with the best mystery writers." (The Times)

All stars
Most relevant
Quite a short novel and certainly easy to listen to with seriously good narration.

The idea for the plot was, at face value,a good one and the pace of the narrative was good. It just fell a bit short on depth of characterisation and background detail for me. Plus, the whole premise of a psychiatrist going undercover in a mental health facility in order to find the wife of a serious Mafiosi was a bit of a stretch for me. But if you can suspend your disbelief and want a book that doesn’t demand too much of you, it is a perfectly enjoyable novel.

Brilliant

This is a lot of fun and blissfully escapist. I heartily recommend it if you need distracting and you like this sort of thing.

Far-fetched Fun

Great narration as always by Armitage. I didn't realise this was book 3 until I checked for more about half way through listening. I will be getting books 1 and 2 next and hope the narrator is as good. Great plot with twists and turns. Will definitely be reading more L J Ross.
