About this listen

Snow is falling softly as a young woman takes her last breath.

Fifteen miles away, two women sit silently in a dark kitchen. They don't speak, because there is nothing left to be said.

Another woman boards a plane to escape the man who is trying to steal her life. But she will have to return sooner or later.

These strangers have one thing in common. They each made one bad choice - and now they have no choices left. Soon they won't be strangers, they'll be family....

When DCI Tom Douglas is called to the cold, lonely scene of a suspicious death, he is baffled. Who is she? Where did she come from? How did she get there? How many more must die? Who is controlling them, and how can they be stopped?

This took a while to get going, but it was definitely worth the wait. Some really interesting characters, great plot and surprising twists. The latter half of the book really kept me gripped.

I have loved all of the books in this series and this latest is no exception. Gripping and tense...

Brilliant...

I really enjoyed the book, especially as one of the scenes is known to me personally ( Pennington Flash ) which added an extra touch to the story for me. I was not prepared for that ending though, so Rachel stumped me again !!!

Rachel strikes again !!!
