About this listen

Electrifying. Addictive. Suspenseful. At the top of her game. Karen Rose, the multiple Sunday Times Top Ten best seller, returns with a new mini-series, new characters and her best novel yet.

Deacon Novak has returned home. The experienced FBI Agent knows that his move to Cincinnati's Major Crime Enforcement Squad will be challenging, but the greater challenge will be saving his younger brother before he becomes the kind of criminal Deacon is chasing.

Faith Corcoran has escaped her identity. Being a therapist to victims of sex crimes was rewarding, but her work with their offenders has jeopardized her life. Her move represents a chance to build a new life in the empty old house her grandmother has left her.

What Faith doesn't know is that a killer has made the house his playground, taking girls into the basement and murdering them. And now Faith is about disturb his fun. With a murderer focused on her, Faith is going to have to put her trust in Deacon if she's going to survive. Because this killer is always closer than she thinks....

The first in a brand new series - and Karen Rose at her tense, tantalising, and thrilling best.

Would you consider the audio edition of Closer Than You Think to be better than the print version?

That's not easy to answer as I haven't read the book. Loved this audio version, brilliant narrator. Fantastic writing, I couldn't get home after a day out quick enough to continue listening.

What other book might you compare Closer Than You Think to, and why?

I really enjoyed "did you miss me" by the same author.

What about Susie James’s performance did you like?

She managed to convince me that the male voices were spoken by a man. This can spoil the listen.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Roza not wanting to leave her Mum behind.

Any additional comments?

Only that I would definitely recommend this book.

Fantastic read
