She is the perfect assassin.

A Russian orphan, saved from the death penalty for the brutal revenge she took on her gangster father's killers.

Ruthlessly trained. Given a new life. New names, new faces - whichever fits.

Her paymasters call themselves The Twelve. But she knows nothing of them. Konstantin is the man who saved her and the one she answers to.

She is Villanelle. Without conscience. Without guilt. Without weakness.

Eve Polastri is the woman who hunts her. MI5, until one error of judgment costs her everything.

Then stopping a ruthless assassin becomes more than her job. It becomes personal.

I loved the book but got a bit annoyed that Russian words were all pronounced incorrectly (I am Russian). Feel like the narrator should have put more effort into checking this out.

great storyline

I loved the tv series and I loved this as it clarified a lot of issues I hadn’t remembered.
I was taken aback when it ended though....it was much too short to warrant a full credit.

Too short?!

the narrator was irritating.. There was no need for me to listen to the accents which were awful. if the book was just narrated it would have been far more engaging.

Gripping Story but.....

This was my first audio book and I was not disappointed! I loved the TV series and was worried the book wouldn't be as good because I know the story. I had no reason to be worried this book is much better! Easy to listen to and have just brought the next 2 books. Highly recommend giving this a try.

First Audio Book and Im Hooked

I haven't watched the TV series but I can understand why it was so popular! Book one leaves you with a cliffhanger...

Good story. Looking forward to the next book!
